I used hibernate regularly until I got an SSD, mainly for convenience. I boot in a few seconds now so it's a non issue.

  I guess my question is what makes hibernate better than sleep? I mean, I realize for extended periods it makes sense, but I have not had a time when I would have needed the extra time a full hibernate would have afforded me. Now, I have realized massive increases in battery life by choosing to not live life at full brightness. I have to confess I felt silly the first time I finally lowered the brightness and saw how much of a difference that made on battery life.

    Hibernate is better than sleep because you have a better idea of what your battery capacity is going to be when you wake it up!
