If Lenovo did this to save power, they broke a function that is needed and an option to enable it is needed. The power savings is probably not much different between sleep S3 and shut down S5. The problem is more getting the end users to put the PC to sleep reliably and tech putting the PCs to sleep after remote maintenance.
They can't just put the PC to sleep because they will still be logged on and potentially have resources in use that will prevent some after hours maintenance from completing properly. So putting the PC to sleep becomes a two-step process, sign out and then sleep.

Although the target system power state is the same between hybrid shutdown and hibernates S4 , Windows will only explicitly disable WOL when it's a hybrid shutdown transition, and not during a hibernate transition.
In Windows 10, hybrid shutdown also known as Fast Startup S4 stops user sessions but lets the contents of kernel sessions be written to the hard disk. It enables faster startups. Skip to main content. This browser is no longer supported. Download Microsoft Edge More info.
