Not to single your post out--I've seen this in other posts in the thread--but I'm not sure I understand what distinction you are making. My TV has a switch--a pushbutton momentary contact switch--but that does not disconnect the TV from the mains electrically. It puts the TV into standby mode. Same with the "switch" on the front of my computer. A "switch" does whatever you wire it to do, which may or may not involve disconnecting the device entirely from the mains.
