Issue
The 'what's new document' says, only: 'Support was added for Systemd's "suspend-then-hibernate" mechanism.' And the only window in Cinnamon that looks relevant says previous little too, namely this:
None of the drop-downs in that window contain 'suspend then hibernate'. Nor does anything in the window allow one to set the delay after which suspension becomes hibernation.
Must one fiddle with systemd, as per this (non-Mint) webpage? If so, (1) surely you should say so, and (2) how do the settings in the systemd file relate to the single GUI setting just mentioned, please?

Research direction

Document how suspend-then-hibernate is enabled, where its delay is configured, and how that configuration relates to the available GUI setting.
