iPad no longer turning off when Smart Keyboard cover is closed

My IPad Pro always shut off when the Smart Keyboard cover was closed. That is until the last couple of months. I’m wondering if an iOS update changed a setting. The Settings: General : Keyboard selection does not offer any control to turn this feature back on. I am running Version 11.2.6.

Does the Smart Keyboard turn the ipad OFF or just put it to sleep when closed? This may be an idiotic question, but does the Smart Keyboard turn the ipad OFF or just put it to sleep when the cover is closed?I have the iPad Pro 10.5 and the Smart Keyboard. When the cover is closed, I know the iPad goes to sleep and it's locked. But is it OFF? I do not believe it is so at night, or when I'm not going to use it for a long time I use the power button to turn it off. A friend disagrees.What's the difference between sleeping and OFF? I have this issue on my mind because the clear-back-protective-cover I have on the iPad (compatible with the keyboard) is so stiff I can't even access the Power button. Obviously, I need a different back cover but that's a different question.)
