I asked my BMW shop foreman about this behavior, and he felt it was typical/expected, and that the ‘304’ number I saw post charge was really an estimate that the software will fine-tune thereafter. I’m learning to just ‘absorb’ such things (I.e., not to expect perfection) with this new technology otherwise I might drive myself crazy ;-).
Thanks for sharing this. Please do note that I didn't turn on climate control or even drove the car. I simply unlocked it after it was done charging.
