Somebody in the thread at some point said:

There's a small hit on suspend current, but it is evidently pretty small
since two users tested it overnight (9h) at a cost of 13% battery.

On andy-tracking shortly we plan to take down the regulator supplying
the LCM during suspend and solve it that way, if the LCM ASIC doesn't
have any more surprises.  Then it should even outperform the previous
way with ASIC in Deep Sleep for current savings.
