Monitor, shutdown floating dialog box

Am I the only one that is very disappointed that all the new Dell monitors have an annoying floating dialog box that pops up whenever the computer is shutdown? I'm talking about the OSD message announcing that there's no HDMI / Display Port connected and the monitor will go into standby mode in 4 minutes! Every computer monitor I've ever owned has shut off within seconds of shutting down the computer. My computer is in my bedroom and I don't appreciate the screen glaring at me for 4 long minutes! Unless someone knows how to disable this feature or perhaps a firmware update that would stop this, I may have to look elsewhere for my future monitor purchases.

Every recent monitor has had this shown in the User's Guide which means it is by manufacturer design.

@DELL-Chris M​  That's my point, Chris. It's a poor design! Only recent Dell monitors make you wait 4 minutes before the monitor goes into sleep mode and turns off the annoying floating dialog box. Every other monitor I've ever owned, including older Dells, turn off within seconds of shutting down the computer.
