you can disagree, you are entitled to do it
but
it doesn't change the fact that DSM in original setup, w/o tweaking can’t support PLP. Please read carefully all 4 obstacles and think twice about them.
One of the possible change to step in is usage of controlled operation by “ups.status” and ups@localhost described here:
and regarding this your statement:
Btw. PLP will save few tenths of microseconds, that can help save necessary metadata (mapping table). Then better investment is to sufficient and stable power from UPS and managed environment between NAS and UPS. For all your data and all your disks.
Provided link can help you save investment to:
- pointless PLP (SSD) feature in DSM environment
- your data protection based on insufficient UPS management in DSM

Controlled Shutdown of your NAS(es) in case of defined Level of Battery in UPS
So, I spent several hours with discovering of this: 1. Each DSM contains a feature "Synology UPS server" you can setup it by Control panel/Hardware & Power/UPS/Network UPS Type + Enable UPS Server it can helps you to manage another NASes connected to your LAN as the Synology UPS server 2.

and regarding this your statement:
... in this case the “useful” wording is just a wish.By the way, Synology also thinks that PLP is usefull in Syno environment, at least they provide PLP in their SNV-3500 NVMe SSD.
