I meant that: Only say suspend works if the whole thing works.

E.g. When going to suspend, set some flag somewhere and sync it to disk.
When coming out of suspend, remove the flag. Now when booting, check if
the flag is set. If so, ask to/disable suspend.

Then the whole UI will automatically adjust because it will know suspend
is broken.

That still wouldn't work for some cases, including mine: my desktop resumes, but the fan noise is intolerable until I reboot.

Why is Gnome Shell relying so heavily on something that is notoriously difficult to make work across a wide array of hardware configurations?

And why discourage shutting down to begin with? It saves power and booting is getting faster all the time anyway...
