Very fair point
In my mind it was more a way to tell whether the problem is related to the sleep part. With other things being the same (ceteris paribus), for a given person with a given device, does the battery drops as much when turning the reader off and on as it does when putting it to sleep? If it doesn't, then the sleeping process may be at fault. If it does, then the firmware or hardware need more examination.
Of course, things are not that easy and in the end the problem may be created by several things pilling up
Anyway, kudos to all of you for keeping to try and figure the bad battery issue together. Now, that's willpower
