Anyway, question - we have option to delete content of optfs WITHOUT restoration (probably less useful thing that powering off device, still, it is here - but it's not topic of my question ) - in new version, it' also done via formatting optfs to clear any errors, or just by delete, like in old versions?
Just by delete. Restoring will format it, though.
I figure this feature's mainly a test feature; if you just want to format it, I'd hook it up via USB and do it that way... or use the console.

You mean you leave it *off* at night? Um... may I ask why?
If you just set it to airplane mode, it uses a neglegable amount of power(literally, the voltage goes *up* slightly over those off hours), and then it's on and ready in the morning.
