Since I turn off my Mac almost every night, just like I turn off my television, lights, and other stuff when I don’t use them. To me, personally, it makes no sense to waste the electricity for about 15 hrs * 365 days per year.

I would put the power on any vertical side of the mini if I were designing it for my use.

I really hope you mean you unplug the power cable from the TV, cause none of the modern TVs turn off when you ask them to. The TV bootup takes too long for it to be "off" off.

No, but I most often use the hardwired button on the side of the TV to shut it down, not just the remote into standby. It takes about 15 seconds to turn on, nothing to worry about.
