Probably because with work at home there’s no WOL.

We disabled sleep to improve battery life and address a personal safety issue. There are many failure scenarios between various builds of Windows 10 and shitty drivers. Devices often wake up in bags and spin up fans until dead.

Normal scenario is that the battery is dead in the morning. In one case, it melted the compartment material in a bag and was deemed a safety hazard.

So now instead all devices can keep their fans on and melt compartment material bag as nobody would assume the device is that dumb to not sleep when closed. Much better.

If it's a safety hazard, tell the OEM to repair the entire fleet.

Problem solved.

Takes awhile to bring back 20k laptops!
