I just use my phones and don't worry about cycle counts etc. There is nothing you can do to change it except use it less, and what is the point in that?
Correct, except I really am hoping to keep the device for 30 months, and if I am using 6 charge cycles in 8 days, that suggests I'll hit the 500 cycles in about 20 months, so it's likely my battery will only have 80% of its original capacity by then. Hopefully Apple will still have the battery replacement program by then. (I've kept my 6s in a smart battery case almost since I had it, and did have the battery replaced under recall in Dec 2016, so I was lucky with that one. We'll see with this one.)
