Surface Book nightmare: Microsoft won't fix 'Sleep of Death' bug

Re: Seriously. Just shut it down properly. What's the problem?

Hardly a constructive comment. What the article isn't making clear is that some surface tablets (mine included) can enter the Sleep of Death state when powered off. I have to use the emergency two-button reset to start my Surface Pro daily, after a full power-down. This only happens if the machine is off for more than a couple of hours, so in my mind it's clearly related. And I have given up looking for solutions. There are none.
