If the goal is just to perform a clean shutdown, and the power might cycle a 
few more times before coming back completely, then shutdown.stayoff might make 
more sense. A human could come along and manually power it back on.

I suspect a lot of people who want to maximize uptime would want the UPS to 
wait a bit for the battery to charge ("battery.charge.restart" -> "Minimum 
battery level for UPS restart after power-off") before powering the load back 
on.
