The rationale behind this is to ensure your phone charges to its maximum capacity (100%) and that it will be able to reach this level for each subsequent charging cycle. This is true of phones that used Nickel Cadmium batteries, which retained a memory of its initial charge state. - (Copied)

7hrs of usage and only 32% gone. The battery must be very strong or you are not using the phone much. How much did you buy the phone?

So you don't actually live in a place that has access to constant light but you're always online shaming people and act like you're better than others

It's not a myth, but it's outdated. Most devices today use li-ion which don't need such charging.

Any manufacturer who demands a full charge is only doing that so your first use of your phone is long and satisfying.

Recent phones dont need charging before use. When I bought mine in 2020, I started using it as soon as I got home and till now the battery is still the same nothing change.

what do you have to lose if you actually charge it before use?

You bought something and instead of you to follow proper protocol, you're asking us questions
