Agree with you - Good add and I’ll throw in two quick tips: USB-C ports collect lint, so gently clear the port with a wooden toothpick and try a different cable on a plain 5V USB-A charger. After a deep drain there’s often no LED or screen change until it reaches a safe level, so leave it charging untouched for several hours before doing the 30–40 second power hold. If it’s been cold and warm it to room temp first; if there’s still no light or response, the battery’s likely at end of life.
Yeah, the always-on thing is exhausting and it creeps fast. In your next 1:1, say: 'I'm offline after 6pm my time. I'll reply next business day unless it's urgent. In that case please call me' and put it in your email or Slack status. Turn on Do Not Disturb with a schedule and allowlist calls, and use scheduled send so your replies go out in the morning. If they keep texting, leave it unread and batch reply at 9am to train expectations.
