Don't assume your experience is truth. In my experience, no one I know ever turns their PC off. They'll put them to sleep but never fully off.

Do updates run in sleep mode? That's my point. Scheduling updates for a time your computer can't do it is pointless and it will just eventually get in your way.

Even if they do update, if you're putting your machine in sleep mode, I assume you'd have some state you didn't want to lose. Why would want a surprise in the morning?
