Not before sometime in (mid-late) March, but can be in April, and perhaps even May, if not June, although that's less likely.
It's not worth it to me to download the beta because I'm a noob to iOS, but I really want to see battery data.

Big IT-related companies always have 7/24 staff ...holidays or national vacation days don't matter.
There is always someone who can press the release button from the operation team ;). No big deal.
Even on Xmas eve there is staff that need to be present - learned that from the company I am working at.

Why does that matter? Yes the battery is rated for 80% @ 500 cycles, but I have had batteries hit 500 cycles and still be at 95%. The only number that really matters is health.
I disagree. Think about it like a car, where the wear percentage can be compared to the overall look of the car (rust, paint chips, etc.) and the cycle count can be compared to the the number of miles on the car. Just because a car is rust free and appears to be in decent shape, doesn't make the fact that it has 150,000 miles on it irrelevant.

I understand where you are going with the analogy but I find it inconsistent. While cycle count may be related to the miles of the vehicle, health is not related to the cosmetics. Health would be related to the pistons, wear on the axels or wear on the transmission. Health and cycle are related. As are mileage and wear of components. Paint chips and rust has nothing to do with the operation of the vehicle.
