The thing is, hibernate does work for some users. And eventually will

some of it just doesn't work.


Well, everything worked for somebody at some point. But the answer can't
be to just add another toggle to the control-center so people can experimentally
find out if it works for them at this time, choose-your-own-adventure style.

Either we commit to supporting it. Then we need to invest the time to make
it actually work. At the minimum, we need to be able to detect reliably when
it will not work, so we can turn it off.

Or we don't. In which case we should just remove it.
