It's very useful and it was essential for me during the previous release
to debug shutdown logic.
I want to see and read the debug that happens here and with a regular
poweroff the debug disappears before you can read it. It's maybe not
something you want to use regularly, but it doesn't mean it's not
useful. There were always "poweroff" and "halt" commands - the names
speak for themselves, it's just people got used to broken behaviour in
the past. If you want to power your machine down, just type "poweroff".
If you want to halt it, then type "halt". Kinda self explanatory really.
Use the right tool for the right job :)
