I think the root issue on sleep is Microsoft/vendor induced - this issue only really began when Microsoft introduced connected/modern standby, and started to incite OEMs to remove BIOS/UEFI support for S3 sleep. It seems unfathomable - maybe there is a valid reason for modern standby, but I've yet to find it. S3 resume is quick on a good laptop with good firmware. Modern sleep seems to drain the laptop battery quickly for some reason, and yet this has been going on for years now. Maybe standby drain isn't part of the Windows logo requirements and ought to be?
