Hi and welcome.
I would say focus on achieving adequate depth (something I've fought with myself). The 80kg set is better but the 100kg reps are a few inches above parallel.

yeah the 80s aren't bad. 100kg just looks too heavy for you right now, you don't have the stability in your hips or back to lower the weight all the way down. may not even be a question of leg strength, just technique and organization to keep stuff rigid enough to complete the full movement.
Muscles are nonsensical they have nothing to do with this bullshit.
