Because the percentage is an estimation based on previous performance not actually measured. (Counting how much current left since the last recharge, and comparing that to how much current could be drawn in the past)

This estimation is biased “conservatively”, wich basically means your device would rather underpromise than overpromise how much longer it will last.
