If my undestanding is correct (as the apple page told me once) a charge
cycle is a full charge of 100% capacity, so if you use your battery from
full until it's empty you'll get 1 cycle, but also when you use your
battery 3 times from 66% to 33%. (admittedly the first variant wuld
stress the battery much more)
so the only way to get less cycles is to use as few power as possible
which is what we all want anyway to get most running time out of it.
the told variants of keeping the battery in the range of 20-80% only
helps not to stress the bat so it won't loose capacity as fast

Greetings
Michael
