I suspect there are all kinds of permutations of chargers and OS installations that will make this hard to compare.
Nonetheless my limited 6p: pmOS/Plasma seems OK to me. With a USB dongle plugged in the charger (plain old, no PD) couldn't cope and the battery % was falling as I worked. Plugging the charger directly into PP gets % increasing. I have noticed pmOS/Plasma does screensave and eventually screenlock: during these phases battery charge increment is rapid.
So far I have been sitting with charger continually connected.
