If you don't need more than 80 or 90% to reach the next charging station - then it doesn't make sense to spend the increasing amount of time to "top off".
Depending upon what the next charging station is. If it's a Supercharger, then yes. If it's a slow charger, then spending the extra time saves a bunch of time at the slower charging point.
The first graph on the Tesla website Supercharger page use to project 200 miles range from a 30 minute charge. Now it says 170 miles.

Guess they're lowering expectations.
it it used to show ideal range, now it shows rated.
I respectfully disagree.
I believe that Tesla corrected the first 30 minutes of charge starting at zero on a new 85 to include the little bit of taper that happens, even at 50% state of charge, rather than just blindly multiplying 400 mph charge rate by 1/2 hour, both using rated miles.
That is very possible. However, the page clearly says EPA rated range on the side of the graph now.
That's interesting. At the Glen Allen supercharger I experienced 200 miles of rated range in 35 minutes. This was in a P85, pulled in with 7 miles of range left.
