I suspect the original capacity must have some variance.

Almost certainly, yes. I didn't note the capacity out of the box, so that 98% from spec is a bit handwavy for sure.

That said, Apple's usually pretty good about shipping things erring over spec, and publishing the low side of the real range. It was probably at least the spec amount when I got it.
