10 years ago i was working at in a shared office where companies could hire a room. We all had a common lunch place and shared microwaves. There I met two security nerds. They never shutdown their computers and if it happened, they did a full format and reinstalled the os - because if security. They spoke with passion about security fixes they made in the vpn client that no other had. They got many requests regularly…
I would think you'd do the exact opposite. If you leave a computer running anyone (Well "anyone" being a skilled adversary) can simply pull out the RAM and grab encryption keys in clear text. Law enforcement does this so often, it's practically routine. The only "safe" system is one that has been long powered off and is using tried and true cryptography, ideally open-source FDE that's been fully audited.

FDE is not enough against physical access, see the evil maid attack.

It must be attached such it tears when opened, tamper-evident- similar techniques are common fro doors, either across the frame or more stealthily near the hinge. You want it to be a little stealth because an informed adversary could break the seal, remove it, and be prepared to replace/recreate it when they're done (like faking a new wax seal)
