Makes sense to me.

I would say after 30s, start to shut off the "not important to keep
running" stuff.  At least for me, once the power is out even 10s, it is
almost certainly going to be 30 minutes.

I deal with this by having one UPS on a desktop computer and another for
a low power router/wifi, more or less.
