I don't find it a proper explanation. Not all regulators power vital
parts of board. Having regulators always on makes people to skip adding
proper supplies thus not describing the HW properly.
Aligning with downstream without clear reason (just because) is also not
a good reason.
Please reduce the choice only to core regulators or describe it really
why they have to be always on.
Best regards,
