There are quite some systems that do not even support (at least, advertise support of) S3 and s2idle is the only option.
Yeah, as I said some OEM even remove support of it in their new devices (e.g. DELL).
Such systems normally support S0ix which means s2idle ends up in firmware. There is not much Linux kernel can do here. Just search for problems with modern standby in Windows.
I know. Linus Tech Tips even stumbled once upon an error where Windows only properly went into standby when the device didn't have an Ethernet cable connected (it was a difference of multiple hours). Sincerely Kilian Hanich
