While the energy efficiency is vastly improved with Apple Silicon, the battery technology is still Li-ion. If your dock charges, you're killing your battery letting it charge every time it drops below 100% capacity. Apparently, the ideal way to extend Li-ion battery lifetime is to use the battery, never letting it drop below 20% capacity, but never charging it above 80%.
