staying at ~100% voting power is optimal for the rank increase and helps the pool a lot more, but for certain people is not optimal for their personal growth, so the threshold is a bit lenient where the occasional vote won't damage your shadow rank increase and have you less valued than an idle account, but the main point with that mechanic is voting a ton outside the pool (like me) will slow the rate of increase in your rank because you drain your voting power down and contribute less overall relative to someone with an equal amount of steem power remaining at 100%. For example, my voting power hovers in the range of 20~40% from curation experiments, voting on comments, or whatever else it is I am doing at the time, so my rank increase is slower than it would be if I were more moderate in my voting outside the pool, and someone else with 2000SP could rise their rank faster from being more conservative. So if your primary concern is to increase rank I think 95%+ is the target range to maintain, and I would advise to aim for that until you have a really good reason for deviations :)
