Electronics - is charging earbuds & their case, simultaneously, bad ?

I don't understand electronics so just checking, if anyone can help or point me somewhere better ?
Is it better to charge case without the earbuds ?
Case has a battery sufficient to completely charge 2 earbuds.

    Can't see that it would make any difference.

    More likely to lose the things or stand on them than having to worry about bud or case charge/discharge cycles.

    I always charge the case complete with earbuds. This means you start off with fully charged buds and a fully charged case. To do otherwise means you are reducing the overall charging capacity of the case/buds for no good reason.

    It doesn't make any difference at all. The case only draws what current it needs which is tiny for the earbuds.
