Coma mode is a deeper form of power down where *nothing* is powered at all whereas "off" keeps vital parts of the machine supplied (RAM mainly).

Splitting hairs, *some* bits of the machine still need power, even in coma mode. For example, the RTC still needs to keep time, and something needs to check at regular intervals whether the 'ON' button has been pressed.
