+See the upstream discussion on this on the systemd list. Not everyone
+will like to use this by default as it does take a lot longer to enter
+the suspend state which might not be favoured by everyone, especially
+those with rotating media and a lot of working RAM.
+
+So options are essential here, but I agree, that this should be a
+configurable option for those that want it.
