Wow! I learned a lot. Thanks. I had previously read that the faster the charge, the faster the batteries wear out, and found this as a good explanation (there's a lot of good stuff there too):

Figure 2: Cycle performance of Li-ion with 1C, 2C and 3C [rates of] charge and discharge.
Charging and discharging Li-ion above 1C [rate] reduces service life. Use a slower charge and discharge if possible. This rule applies to most batteries....

In general L3 charging should only be done when needed and you should use the L2 charging for most daily driving.

This Model S was used for commercial transport between LA and LV on a daily basis and racked up over 200,000+ miles in a little over a year. That is basically continuous commercial service with multiple drivers. The vehicle was charged to 100% as standard and made regular use of the Superchargers along the route. Battery degradation at 200,000 miles was 6%.
