I use Ubuntu btw. Poweroff could use more write cycles on the SSD because it has to read everything at startup, but suspend has to keep supplying power to the RAM

My laptop, I’d just suspend to RAM, unless I was going somewhere without it for a couple of days or more.
The desktop is always on. The monitors suspend, but everything else is sucking power. I expect with frequency scaling, it’s not as bad as it used to be, but then, in ye oelden days I didn’t do nightly backups to the cloud and disc, or sync data between servers and run other odd, automated jobs.
