A business needs to make money, they need their delivery vehicles to work, they do not have time for their truck to sit somewhere for 8 hours while the computer "learns" the new battery state of charge. The whole thing is ridiculous.
You only have to do that if you don't have the proper scan tool with the rest feature.

And that is not guaranteed. If a relay trips or you just look at it cords-eyed, it will not rest. That is only a poor man's fix.
