If magisk still works like custom stuff in the days of old, settings could very much change battery draw and charge rates that could cause premature wear of a battery.

So does installing a app that plays videos. Since watching videos drains more battery than say a typical phone call.

This argument is weak at best.

If you rely on lies to protect freedom, you will not be able to protect it. Magisk allows to modify kernel parameters.

There's a wide gap between "rely on lies" and "be forced to lie".

There is no gap between those, for something like this that poses no threat to life. Pick a different phone brand than Samdung. I never recommend such a horrible mainstream brand for good reasons, and privacy is not the only one. If people are enticed by Good Lock and are okay with everything else, enjoy the rest of the baggage that comes with it.
