I think the issue here is CPU performance being tied to battery degradation as a method of planned obsolescence, rather than a complaint about iPhone battery li

  It's not really planned obsolescence, they made the trade off of CPU speed instead of battery life when the battery gets old. This is more reasonable than you might think as deep discharges use up batterie life faster. The other option is for the phone to not keep it's charge for nearly as long which would likely be more annoying. In either case it's a ~40$ repair to replace a phones battery and IMO a good idea at ~2-3 years old on all phones. Assuming you keep your phone for 4-5 years.
