I think some affluent boat owners, who buy the dop dollar AGM battery bank, kind of expect it to perform better in the same treatment, and not give em the love they need.
Lots of AGMs say give them gobs of current initially. A big bank will never get the durations of bulk current they want from an underwired slow spinning alternator, and suffer for it where as a flooded bank is more tolerant of lesser bulk charge rates.
I blame the charger, not the battery, without more data proving otherwise.
