The 100% charge thing is also for balancing, as most BMSs are pretty dumb and only use passive balancing.
When an individual cell reaches a set voltage, a resistor is turned on which bleeds the excess power preventing that cell from overcharging. When the pack reaches 100% theoretically every cell should then be at the same voltage.
