I don't mean saving battery power but energy in general.

I know some people are used to keeping all devices on (TV)
even if they leave their house but some people are more environmentally aware.

Shutting down and restarting is probably faster than hibernating, honestly.
speed is not an issue here. I just don't to restore all applications and their states (e.g. open terminals, website position) whenever I power it on again. And think we cannot realistically expect all applications to support proper session management.
