I am waiting for you to post something besides opinion. Wiping battery stats has been proven to be irrelevant. Heck, I could (and have) wipe them at any point and Android will still correctly calculate my remaining battery %.

That's your opinion. Where's the proof? Why is it still recommend to do a couple full charging cycles? Besides the fill capacity of the battery isn't right until you run it through some cycles.
Because the battery stats file you are referring to stores data on what apps are using battery (the stuff that shows up in the Battery menu in the settings). It does NOT store information correlating the voltage levels in the battery with the batteries current capacity. Regardless, while there has been debate on whether wiping restoring that file improves battery life overall, there is no debate about whether it improves the REPORTING of the battery life by the OS. That is the phone telling you it's at 20% when it's actually at 40%, and that sort of thing. So even if it doesn't give you a minute's more use off a charge, making sure that data is as accurate as possible is still a helpful/worthwhile thing to do.
And again, why do you care so much, and how is bringing up other random tidbit's of "information" that are infact unrelated helping your case?

I just charged mine all the way before I activated it.
Easy answer: I question the "status quo" in regards to posts that aren't backed up with links to actual data and claim statistics based on forums. (That includes my own.)
