> some other reason.

I want to turn Wifi OFF because I want it off - I don't want to use Wifi, and therefore I don't want the Wifi using my batter life, and I also don't want any chance of Wifi broadcasting/receiving anything when I want it off.

This is just Apple treating their users like idiots. They're leaving the Wifi powered on for their own nefarious purposes - such as harvesting more Wifi SSID's when the user doesn't expect it, and using that harvested info to improve Location accuracy - also when the user is unaware that its happening, unless they dig deep, deep into the SysPrefs ..

From Apple: "For the best experience on your iOS device, try to keep Wi-Fi and Bluetooth turned on."

This is newspeak for "we need you to leave Wifi on so we can continue to harvest the SSID's of the networks around you, save the data, and report it later to improve our Location accuracy database" ..
