I was thinking about buying a wurkkos fc11 as my first flashlight but it said they recommend untwisting it in a review to avoid making a connection so it doesn’t discharge while not in use. Do I need to worry about that with all flashlights? I was planning on keeping it in my backpack so I have it whenever.

Li-Ions are the worst at something like 5 percent in the first 24 hours and then loses 1–2 percent per month

I still remember dealing NiCad's 10-20% per month, li-ion was some space-aged future tech dream back then
