My first thought was to agree with the checkbox. But actually it's an
intermediate method suspending to both RAM and disk. If you could place the
checkbox at either hibernate or suspend it makes no sense. By the way: I like
the description in the Arch wiki with "Suspend to RAM/disk/both". From the
usability POV even a third option (aka radio button) is not a good solution.
Strictly speaking it's not an exclusive setting. "Both" implies rather to have
checkboxes for RAM (or hibernate) and disk (aka suspend, I may have mixed the
terms), and checking both means hybrid-suspense. If I understand the underlying
functionality right it works exactly in this way: you have the current state in
both RAM and on disk allowing to wake-up quickly from RAM with the safety of a
backup on disk when you run of of battery.
