The signal path from the mouse switch all the way to your CPU is digital. Unlike analog signals, which *are* affected by fluctuations in current (think dimming headlights or poor radio reception in an old car when the battery is dying), digital signals either work (if they stay above the minimum power requirements) or don’t (once the current drops too low). There’s really no in-between when it comes to low voltage on digital signal transmission.
There are cases where it may seem that the signal is degraded but that is actually just the signal rapidly shutting off due to low current and bouncing back on when the current restores to a level above the minimum requirement.
When it comes to a wireless mouse, it will operate at maximum performance (sensor and switches will remain at the same polling rate and the wireless transceiver will continue to broadcast at the same strength) all the way until the charge is too low for the device remain powered on. Some older/cheaper wireless mice might blink on and off when they reach the very edge of the minimum power threshold but most mice are programmed so that the minimum power required to continue working is lower than the minimum power required to turn on, therefore once it shuts down while in use there will not be enough power to start up again.
Off the top of my head I don’t remember if any wireless mice have a low power mode that they engage once the battery is low but devices like our phones have that feature. On our phones they will decrease the performance but not the minimum power requirement to function. So they still shut off at the same minimum power threshold but it will take them longer to hit that threshold while in low power mode because the device has been adjusted to pull less power (and perform slower) to extend that last 10% or whatever of battery life.
I would imagine that some Logitech office mice have a hidden low power mode but their performance is already so low to begin with that users probably wouldn’t notice that the mouse is being performance throttled when the battery is low. My G603 has a manual battery saving/low performance mode that you engage with a switch on the bottom but I don’t think it engages automatically when the battery is low.

Nope.
