(Jumping into the middle of a discussion here, and maybe I got it wrong)

For the devices I work with a shutdown would be highly unexpected
just because something insignificant like the display fails to work.
The devices are used to control the climate for birds, sometimes in hot areas.
We do not want the device to shut down and let emergency take over,
due to a non-functional display.
