I have multiple backups at all times so I am not worried about data loss. I have 18 years of experience with UPS due to years living in TVA land where the power dropped once a day, crashing and corrupting whatever I was running. [TVA is the Tennessee Valley Authority which creates and provides power.] I use the brand the TVA uses or at least used when I lived there.
UPS keeps the power steady during those drops, warns of line problems and in an extended drop does an orderly shutdown. I'm on probably my 4th or 5th one - by the time the battery goes there's generally a better version for not much more than the cost of the replacement battery. As to my question, I take it power drops ARE the concern with leaving it on.
