This is totally consistent with my experience with the Pixel 2 XL. Despite the sub-par screen, it has been performing great on all front and in particular the battery is keeping up fantastically well (in fact it got better with time and OS updates). It was audacious in its own way (the panda design, the use of the Visual Core chip) at the time when even Apple seemed behind in the "smarts". And I got it refurbished 2 years ago. There has been no reason for me to upgrade, as the 3 and 4 didn't actually deliver anything I wanted, and they changed inconsistenly in what they meant to be, without actually changing where it matters. I don't care about project Soli that amazes people for the first 5 seconds before being forgotten. I care about battery life. This is why as far as I am concerned the top-of-the-line Pixels are dead to me. If I am getting one that would be the cheaper "a" version. Frankly given the products being sold in the past couple of years, I am looking forward to a change in leadership.
