That’s because with any phone, an old battery stops being able to provide enough current to the phone when it gets old. So Apple throttles the phone. Phones that don’t do that become unstable, while the iPhone remains stable, but slows down.

Maybe if you keep using it once it doesn't hold a charge for more than an hour, but I've never done that. When my batteries have gotten low, the phone didn't start crashing more or acting weird, just running out of battery sooner.
