    That's not too unreasonable.  I'd take -h to mean halt, and -P as Power Off.

How do we boot up after "halt" or "sleep"? I quit using these commands years ago
for lack of knowledge about booting back up. The man pages never gave me what I
needed to know, and now that it has been brought up, I thought that I would ask
and get my curiosity satisfied.

Usually a single push of the power button if pressing ENTER doesn't. It is, unfortunately, BIOS dependent behavior, and can't be blamed on Linux in any way.
