Am I missing something?

Didn't it take power to to charge that supercap or backup battery?

Is there really a difference between drawing a tiny bit of mains power when "off" and drawing a tiny bit of mains power to maintain these when "on?"

Too often, it's easier to move a problem around than to actually solve it.
