    Yeah exactly, on older systems you could fuck up the HDD by shutting down hard. That’s why they used to include the shutdown screen. But modern systems and particularly modern applications handle persistence in a way that makes it much harder to leave the storage in an invalid state. You might lose something you tried to save, but you’re unlikely to brick your HDD or your OS installation.
