Did you seriously just compare rates by percentage across different batteries of probably different capacities? Anything to save face for Tesla I guess.

Of course I did. Why wouldn't I? They are all battery PACKS. Maybe I didn't make that clear but I think that is a well known fact that Tesla batteries are made up of a collection of cells.

You have 100 of battery X and you go to 1000 of battery X you can charge 10X more watt hours but the same %.

You are so right, the same percentage but at 10 times the current when compared to the former case. Then the question is "Do the superchargers allow for that much current?"

They don't, which is why Tesla announced their plans to build new "Megachargers" https://www.teslarati.com/tesla-semi-megacharger-charging-po...
