iPhone 17 charging limit continuously ignored after 27.2 update

Iphone 17 base has been continuously ignoring my charging limit (95%) since 27.2 update.

I know that it charges to 100% OCCASIONALLY, I’ve read that part. Before updating, I only experience this once in a while then my next charge would be back to the limit.

But now, ever since I updated, I already charged 6-7 times. And I SWEAR my phone ignored the limit all the time. I know it because the second time it happened, I already found it weird so I monitored it.

Troubleshooting I tried and nothing happens:

changing back to 100% limit, restart phone, set it back to 95%.
changed limit to 90%, still got ignored

I’m using iphone 17 base, 27.2 version

Do you let the phone go to a very low state of charge (<10%) before charging it, routinely?
