No one is doubting that so I'm not sure what that has to do with anything. I'm actually surprised the ICE would charge it as high as 85%.

The main disagreement is that you are the one saying there is no way the car will have very similar power once the battery has been diminished and the ICE is on. You have been saying it will then go into a reduced performance mode.
