No, the behavior I see on a pre-2.0.0 BIOS is:

s2idle suspend works well (including getting into S0ix states) with no 
effort on my part.  I have no idea if s2idle does rfkill by itself, but 
all I do is shut the lid and the right thing happens.

Opportunistic S0ix (when the laptop is fully powered up and in use) only 
happens if I use rfkill to shut down WiFi and Bluetooth.  If either WiFi 
or Bluetooth are on, the laptop stays in power states well above the 
lowest-power SOix states.

It sounds like the 2.0.0 BIOS prevents whatever s2idle is doing from 
working without an rfkill.
