This behaviour was not manifest on previous firmware iterations, it crept in unannounced, the short initial timeout marrs the use of the machine if you happen to prefer to fill the page with text using a small point size (or a slow reader), and crucially it doesn't adhere to the sleep/power off settings that the user sets. That's either an extremely poor UI change or an unintended feature introduction (bug)
