No surprises here. Just like the lockdown on iPhone screen and part replacements, Macbooks suffer from the same Apple’s anti-repair and anti-consumer bullshit. Battery glued, ssd soldered in and can’t even swap parts with other official parts. 6000$ laptop and you don’t even own it.

    No, it doesn’t make sense that a system in sandby would need ventilation. The power draw is very low (not enough to need cooling).

    The issue isn’t that it’s heating up in standby, the issue is that the system wakes from sleep for no reason within the bag.

    This did happen to a lesser extent with the older, slower sleep method (S3 sleep), but recent Intel chips and UEFI firmwares have disabled this.
