I am of the old school mindset that stress cycles kill components. So, much like the centennial light, I don’t turn off pc’s ever. As a result I’ve only ever had one hard component failure (not including HDDs) over 31 years. Less energy efficient? Absolutely! But I’ll trade that for component life even if it’s a placebo.

Personally in my use case if I need clipboard on my headless windows system I wake it with moonlight and then connect with rustdesk. Not the most elegant way of going about it but it works. In assuming Polaris would work similarly for a Linux machine.
