>Is there any application of "Modern Standby" that is actually delivering significant value to customers somewhere?

Why is this important, or even something to consider? The only thing that's important with Windows and features in it is whether something delivers value to Microsoft.

But does it? Nobody asked for it, it's not even meaningfully used by any Microsoft product and can't drive sales for them, its endless litany of bugs just increase support workloads.

You have a good point, but there's probably some department manager who got a big bonus from being able to spin this "feature" as a great thing and implement it.

Sure, as long as Microsoft can force you to use Windows.
