It is a reasonable opinion, but I disagree.

On modern laptops, there is usually a lot of disk space (500GB - 1TB),
so 8-64GB reserved for a special use is not a terrible price compared
to other things we do. I wouldn't make it mandatory, just easy.

Many laptops never need to go to disk-stored suspension; a low-power
sleep mode is all they need to get through to the next power point. For
the cases where it is necessary, it should be as reliable as possible.
