It seems to me that you are interpreting the intention of of the letter

Sorry, a misunderstanding.
That state of affairs is unsatisfactory. It means that the deeper suspension
modes lose a lot of their usefulness. Ideally the system after resumption is
just like at suspension (minus system clock). It seems to me that to reach
that goal you must never call disconnect() unless the device is physically
removed.
