I believe that's mostly correct - modern rechargeable batteries have overcome many of those issues It's still recommended that NiMh batteries be conditioned regularly in order to keep them at optimum performance. A charger with a conditioning cycle fully discharges the batteries before recharging them, but not all charges do conditioning.
