What the fuck Crapple.
>5 days
Drops more than that overnight for me
The Mac notebooks by default don't enter a hibernate mode. You can force a hibernate by using the pmset command line option.

You're the only problem here

MACTODDLERS BTFO
you battery drains more than 75% overnight?
As an actual Macbook user, I've left my Macbook closed for 3 days and it dropped 5% battery. If it's idle and only has an ssh session open, it drops about 1% per hour while I was open and working.
>>Windows laptop
>>open it after a month and the battery only dropped 3%
What universe are you living in?
Microsoft's own laptops don't even do connected standby properly.
Hibernate is shit though. I always disable it as soon as I get a laptop. I'm not spending 10 seconds waiting for my device to resume every morning.
