All li ion batteries work this way. If the battery mapped 100% to the chemical max capacity, your batteries would degrade very fast and die very young.
This whole discussion is colored by confusiin between the heavily simplified model presented by the charge indicator with the raw battery properties.
Fun fact: there is no "80%" level either as seen from the battery controller POV, that's just a forecast about how much energy the battery might be able produce if run until the cut-off level (and the 0% level here is also a fair bit above the chemical empty state), and the battery controller is constantly updating its model about how the battery behaves when discharging to keep the forecast accuracy reasonable when the battery ages. When the batteries come from the factory, the calibrations for 0%, 80%, 100% are at certain voltages, and they constantly move throughout the life of the battery. (Maybe not the 0% voltage)
