It absolutely isn't. If a laptop lid is closed, it needs to be sleeping, period. No random updates, no search indexing. I've also had this happen after explicitly putting laptops into sleep AND closing the lid. No idea how Apple is the only company able to do this consistently.

> no search indexing hear me out. how about ... there doesn't need to be a background process that runs *constantly* and consumes 30% of your processing power and makes the fan spin all the time because it generates so much heat.

This absolutely can and does happen on Apple hardware

> If a laptop lid is closed, it needs to be sleeping, period. See, and here I feel the exact opposite. If it’s docked I don’t want it going to sleep just because I closed the lid. I still want to be able to use the two screens that are attached and in use!

Never happened to me lmao. Apple is for tech illiterates anyways so it's inconsequential.
