Couldn't those register writes required on shutdown be included in ACPI?

Since it's traversing the PCI bus hierarchy, not easily.

There are also a number of shortcuts for "shutdown is just two writes to a given register" that some OS probably expect to be around these days (a field in FADT) that I'm not sure how a complex ACPI shutdown routine would fare in practice.
