Who sleeps while cooking rice?
I think some rice cookers popular in Asia do have features to keep it warm, activate at a certain time etc. Perhaps you want cooked rice for breakfast (perhaps already cooled down but still moist and fluffy), or have it prepared so you can make Sushi later while taking a nap. Can definitely see the usecase in a food culture with lots of rice.
is it possible to get rice cookers that don't default to a warming mode? Even the cheapest rice cookers I've found in the UK only have a cook and warm mode when it's plugged in
Any but the cheapest Zojirushi
