You go grab a cap of coffee and by the time you are back it is charged for the rest of the day. This is a perfect example of the problem which is more imagined than real. I'd bet most people making fun of this design never used the said mouse, and those who use it never found placement of the charging port to be an issue.

To be fair, that only happens if you ignore the warnings that should show up days before and aren’t willing to wait a minute for it to charge.

Why should I have to wait, at all? Let me plug it in and keep using it. Best of both worlds.

The solution would have been to allow use while charging, but once battery is full, pop up regular warnings to unplug it to "prevent battery degradation" or some other white lie
