Hi there, I have a question, Please help

Hi everyone.
It maybe a stupid question, but I want to know the key reason of why RouterOS needs to shutdown by software first while other routers not, even routers with OPENWRT or other powerful firmware, we just unplug the power if we what to switch them off… So what made RouterOS different at this point?
Thanks~

You don’t really need to do that. If you just power off your device when you need to you will see an annoying message in the log when you boot your router for the next time, but that’s basically it. There’s no other consequences to be afraid of.
