Yes. The difficult thing of including battery status as one kind of diagnostic information is how you define it. I think Saumitra's comment (remaining uptime from the perspective of battery) makes sense.
Could you please list all the diagnostic information kinds that are not clear in your mind? So that we can try to fix the definition.
