But "more or less" != "nailed down (so tightly it's not always appicable)"

I thought my original note described that, as well as describing how
it differs from STR.

STR shuts down a lot more.  Not necessarily powering down the CPU
(which is what would cause the need for boot/BIOS code to have the
"this is really a resume" cases, and isn't always possible), but at
least being more agressive about powering down clocks and such.
