Some people shutdown, or at least suspend, their computers for a
variety of reasons. Noise is one, energy consumption is another. Or the
server is a laptop that one person takes out of the house from time to
time, leaving others with only SN. I'm fine leaving my SC server on,
although I prefer to use the SrvrPowerCtrl plugin to suspend it when my
players are idle, and wake it up via WOL. But some people want to turn
the computer off.
