Here's the problem... - shutting weewx down does nothing to save power - shutting the pi down saves 'almost' nothing because it draws so little - the WLL is still on and using power to act as a datalogger in the interim - and internet connectivity requires 'some' hardware powered on as well - and any hardware solution will cost more than you'd save in power in 3+ years probably
So I'm not seeing any use case making any sense at all here to even bother trying to over-optimize the 1-3W a pi draws.
