Not sure exactly how sleep cover effects this as I don't have one.

Actually it's quite logical.
Here's the most logical scenario:
First of all take into account that the intended time for light use is nighttime or at least a dark setting. If you turn it off yourself you have most likely been temporarily distracted (by traffic, a phone call, friends or any of that pesky stuff from the "real" world. So when you turn it back on it means you've quickly shooed away such distractions quickly and gone back to what you SHOULD be doing: reading. And it's most likely still dark.
On the other hand if it goes to sleep from inactivity it's most likely because you yourself feel asleep and so when you turn it back on there's no need for a light since it is now day.
Or at least that's what I think they were thinking. Either way it doesn't bother me too much.
