I think you may be misunderstanding the meaning of "cycle".
Charging every night for a 5 day week, from 80% to 100% is 1 cycle (in this crude example).
A cycle is not the number of times you plug in a battery to charge, it's a single charge/discharge full to empty and vice versa.
There is more to it of course because you never really "empty" a lithium battery, and for longevity it may be configured to never be fully charged to 100%, but that's roughly the point.
