It's literally just a metaphor for how much in the way of socializing you can handle before needing a break. My wife used to take me to hours-long parties and I'd need a break about 90 minutes in, whereas everyone else could go all night. I would be described as having a low social battery.
What's wrong with using a metaphor to describe a phenomenon? Or is this just like some boomer-type "back in my day we didn't have a term for this" kind of thing?

I'm far from a boomer. That's for sure.
