80 percent is only on rooted nougat. Pie is unrooted and battery will charge to 100 percent

Magisk just tweeted that the "world's first true system-as-root" was just created. Do you think that with this we could achieve root for Pie? Or would this not change anything?

you can just flash image in safestrap and then flash the safestrap for nougat zip in post 2 (or its included in the new DSF6 build) after you flash the nougat system image in safestrap to get back to nougat safestrap. If you fail to flash the safestrap zip for nougat your phone will automatically boot to safestrap on every reboot on a nougat rom.
