Well, Apple's official stance may be this but my first battery performance declined to about 2 hours after 3 years of use (mostly plugged in). Would you consider this normal and acceptable?

Yes, that's quite common. Read the FAQ I posted for factual information about Apple notebook batteries, including tips on maximizing battery performance.

I did and apparently if I don't sit in an oven or on the north pole, I am maximizing my battery by doing nothing.

There's a bit more to it than just temperatures. Read the BATTERY LIFE FROM A CHARGE section.
