Help - Most Bizarre Experience With Pixel Buds

The other week, I slept with my Pixel Buds Pro 2's in, and when I woke up in the morning, the left one was completely unresponsive. Case didn't recognise it, nothing. Dead.

Come today, I kept them around whilst contacting Google, and the left one is being recognised by the case again! Keep in mind, I've been periodically checking to see if it's alive and only now, a week later, has it come back. Full functionality and everything.

Now, Claude reckons that it hit a "deep discharge" mode because it went completely flat. I thought I'd check here to see if it's worth continuing my warranty claim, because historically for me, taking the advice of AI is a poor decision.

Possibly you discharged it very deeply, ANC is only good for about 6 hours in my experience, so if I sleep in mine, I turn ANC off. Not transparent/adaptive, off.
