Hi jordan
It seems to me that there is largely a consensus on this thread (and other threads).
1 - People don't like the auto power off, and want a sleep mode that continues. Regardless of boot speed it will never be as fast as a resume from sleep.
2 - People are willing to trade slightly reduced battery lifetime for greatly increased usability. It's my device, let me worry about how long it lives.
3 - People resent the attitude that the engineering team are dictating a non configurable user experience based on some perception of a largely ignorant majority of users.
I looked long and hard on this form and never saw a single post in which a user worried about the lifetime of the battery itself (only the time between charges). And yet you've gone to great lengths to implement a 'feature' which no-one asked for and which is degrading the user experience for many of us. It seems, dare I say it, rather autocratic. If I wanted that, I would have bought an iPad. You don't want resentment from your customers.
You have a great resource on these forums, please don't ignore a consensus opinion just because it differs from your engineering team.
