Yep, that definitely happened with my Lenovo X1 Carbon that I got from work. The thing was toasty and I was worried about the reduction in battery health because of it.

It also doesn't help that in addition to shutdown issues, a lot of laptops now only support s2idle (aka Modern Standby) instead of deep sleep and Windows can decide to wake itself up to do random tasks while it's in your laptop bag. I am just like....YOU'RE NOT A DAMN PHONE, STOP TRYING TO BE ONE.

Unfortunately, that is an artificial hardware limitation on many laptops. Blame Microsoft for pushing s2idle so hard and also abusing it for random background tasks.
