I don't remove it to charge it (or even disconnect it)! Should I?

In theory yes, but who does?

Modern cars don't like having the battery removed, they forget to
much.

If the battery has gone flat, especially if the starter motor has been
operated, the radio, clock etc will already have forgotten who they were,
what time it is etc.

Normally not when it just sags badly when trying to start the car.
