    The computer doesn’t KNOW when it’s suddenly not going to have enough power, that’s insane! There isn’t a little tank of petrol inside your phone, your phone can’t predict how much power you’re going to be using when you’re on it, and your phone can’t see the exact amount of charge left in your shitty old dying battery.

      What you just described… Does that become less true when the power is throttled?

        No, but the chance of voltage drops due to the battery not being able to keep up with the load is a lot lower.
