Wikipedia has some pretty good materials, e.g.: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ACPI#Power_states and see also: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sleep_mode https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hibernation_(computing) In my case it's going to S3 (at least apparently from the log messages and observed behavior) when I don't at all want it to, and never successfully resuming from that.
And thanks, I did also look over https://wiki.debian.org/Hibernation But alas, nothing there appears applicable to my issue/situation. Anyway, maybe at some point I'll update/that/those Debian wiki pages - including, e.g. (links to) relevant definition information. Perhaps after I get my issue resolved, so I'm less likely to need multiple iterations of edits/additions/changes/updates.
