I shut everything down at the end of the day. Takes <30 seconds to boot up so it's not really an issue

    The horror is not how long booting takes, but rather if it'll work

    I've been patching and bouncing hundreds of machines automatically. The first decade, I was concerned and then merely observant. It's been so reliable that I just stopped being concerned for the second decade. The last 5 years have been very occasionally (1%) unreliable, thanks to Lennart's cancer, but not enough that I need to give it more than a glance. EL10 is a bit of a shitshow, so maybe the slow trend since el7 is continuing.
