How in the Fucking World did OpenCore + MacOS Sonoma Eat 25% of my Battery Capacity in 1 Month?!?!?!

Title says it all, 2015 MBP quad core I7 amd R9 DG. I Use this computer pretty regularly and Push it to it's limits, but I treat it like a baby. It gets charged to 80 and drained to 20 religiously, never dies, and never gets left on when not in use. I Recently Decided to install MacOS Sonoma Using OCLP moving from MacOS Mojave, and I've loved the Update except for how resource heavy it is and how much faster it drained my battery. Being on Mojave my Battery Health would Drain a couple 10ths of a Percent a Month at the absolute most. I'm completely shocked and didn't know it was even possible for a Battery to loose almost 25% capacity in a Month, but the numbers do not lie. It's Obvious that this Health Loss is the fault of either Sonoma/OCLP or a combination of the two, considering this battery had been used prior for over a year with 0 issues, and only showed signed of deterioration after installing Sonoma w/OCLP. Again, I understand it's an issue with the Software, but what could that possibly be? I can't fathom how anything could kill the Batttery Capacity at that scale and speed, but I'd love to hear what you guys think.
