I think https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48766436 is a practical answer. A marker that can't be forged (without explicitly malicious code being written), which is needed by the "yield to suspend/shutdown" function.

Missing the "wipe key from memory" means you don't have the marker, and trying to continue the suspend/shutdown will fail to compile, because you don't have the marker.
