Interesting to hear such things discussed at that level. Turning it off is suggested to get rid of compromised background processes that might be spying on users. Obviously, this only help against malware that isn’t permanently installed on a phone.

These days, I don’t think phones even turn off completely. Closing to sleeping. And only a portion of background services will stop and restart.
Try holding your power button for a bit of time or letting your battery run down. Phones absolutely turn off
What I’m saying is - even though it says “shut down”, it’s not doing a real shut down. Yes, you could fully let the battery run dry. But that takes 12 hours and you can’t do it once a day. Plus it ruins your battery’s capacity.
It doesn’t seem like a hibernate though - it always has to reload the homescreen and doesn’t remember processes from before the reboot and sk on.
What are you saying it does instead, if it’s not a real shut down? What is it about it that makes it not a real shutdown? As compared to a computer shutdown.
I think this might be true for iOS, isn’t the case on Android. Android phones still fully shut down in the traditional sense.
