> I can throw my macbook into a bag and pull out a week later with just a small battery draw down
Hmm, I can't with a Macbook Air M1. I lose maybe up to 10% a day.
When suspended, I see it appearing on the network a few times each hour. I can leave a process running in the background and see that it's getting a few seconds of cpu time each time this "suspended" mac wakes up to do whatever it is doing. There are no settings I can see for a deeper sleep and to stop it doing whatever it is doing. I think they check for updates and such.
