Why would a person do a web search for "Linux sleep"? If they're a non-technical user, they already know what "Sleep" means because it's the same term that Windows and macOS use, so that don't have to do a web search to figure out what it means.
And if they're a technical user, they won't be confused by the distinction between the "Sleep" power management action and the `sleep` shell command.
