Out of curiosity, what is the difference between older S3 sleep and modern sleep?
S3 sleep powers down all major components except for RAM. Modern sleep also keeps the CPU and network up, albeit in a low power state. It's not always executed well, hence the reports of laptops cooking themselves in a bag or draining overnight despite being "in sleep mode".
I don't think light modes were as glaring in the past, first of all monitors were smaller, second I don't think they were as bright.
