It all depends on the users habits.
Well said, as it is a major variable here.

Getting your battery down to low levels like that isn't too bad when its generally taking you hours to even reach it. However if you are overworking the battery to the point of where it becomes hot & active percentages fall fast, then yes, you really want to cut back on what is running. It could make the difference from it being a 8-month battery lifespan to a 1-3/4 year stable life span.
