Seems way easier to me and is what I do.

In AUR there is script called powerdown that does all that.

yup there is but you still need to make sure it is doing everything for your
system properly. To me it does not cover all the possibilities for every
machine out there. It is good to look at for example settings though.

I know on my system it missed over half the tuneable's when I gave it a
shot.

Exactly why using powertop would be much better - it works very well
on my systems and seems to catch all the possible tunables on any
system without me having to rewrite different scripts each time. I'm
envisioning a

powertop --set-all-good

and be done with it.

I do my script 1 time only on each system I use, unless something starts occurring with power issues and that has only happened on one machine since doing it this way. Then just let it run as any script would. acpid works perfectly to do what you want. Set it up one time and you're good to go AND done with it. I do not get why you think you have to write a script each time?
