Macbook charging with the monitor and battery saving

Hi, Am I supposed to turn this feature (smart charging) on or off when my m1 MacBook is connected to the monitor via USB-C cable (with 60W power delivery)?

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 12.1

I would always have on the Battery Health Management option...

If you are near the mains leave it plugged in.
