My AirPods went thru the washer and dryer in their case. No damage whatsoever!
My airpods pro were totally destroyed in the washer/dryer, no idea why. Maybe it was because it was quite a lengthy washing cycle?
Some people would say it's creepy to do stuff like this, but creatively exercising your talents to reunite people with their lost stuff is a net win in my book.

That definitely isn’t normal. My guess is you need to clean the contacts in the AirPods. They might be in the case but it’s still pairing or trying to pair. Shouldn’t drain that much, especially overnight.
Maybe the battery is failing?
Unless Person B also tells you that in general their air pods only last 30 minutes playing music.
As stated, their percentage of power level fall vs person A is 2000% more being generous (person A said a week, not a night). If it was because of the battery, the air pods would also last way way way less playing music.

Something is wrong with them. I can use mine repeatedly over several days before finally needing to plug them in again. You should reach out to support.
I've googled it and tried all the recommended fixes. This is a frequent problem - only for some people.
Want me to blow your mind? The REASON for this is the case. Everyone always suggests cleaning, but that won’t help for the long term. I know because I have tried.
I took a pair of tweezers and bent the metal contacts in the case outward. That was a year ago. I have not had a single issue since. Not one. I am willing to bet Apple brushed a manufacturing defect under the rug. YMMV and if your airpods are under warranty, consider that first, but after having the issue with first gen and second gen, I wasn’t about to deal with nonsense.
I left my AirPods Pro at a school sports field an hour away, and I didn't realize until the next morning after it been raining heavily. I gave them up for lost and needed headphones for work – so ordered some from Apple with same day delivery. A week later, I got a Find My notification that they had been spotted – at the same sports field. I figured what the hell, put on a podcast and drove the hour to see if I could…

If Person A loses 1% over a week in standby, and person B loses 20% overnight, it's probably not the battery..

Speaking of AirPods, do people have bad experience with their quality? I have an AirPods Pro 1st Gen for about 3 years and the noise cancellation function has degraded to the point of unusable. The Apple store technician said the audio hardware has failed diagnostic and it couldn't be repaired. For a $250 equipment failed after 3 years of moderate usage is pretty disappointing.
I was surprised at the quality, and they've lasted a couple years already at almost daily use.
The nice part is, if I lose them, no big deal. I bought a 2nd pair as a backup.

They don’t get involved even if you find an iphone that has John doe still logged on. No clue why they wouldn’t at least send an email to the account owner. I tried to surrender the iphone at the store but they wouldn’t take it.
Liability probably.
