I understand your confusion...and even more confused because _PR0 and
_PR3 usually share the same power resource.

We are still contacting with the ACPI spec authors to get a clear
understanding of the D3/D3Hot/D3Cold definition.

Yes,

The spec says,

"This control method is used to put the specific device into its D3hot
or D3 state"

I'm not sure what "D3 state" here means.
Probably not "D3 cold".
