On macOS, when full disk encryption is active, there is a different
boot-time login screen. The process is described here:
https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204837
I've just checked, and the machine shuts down after a short while
(about 3 minutes) when on battery power. Did not try on main power, but
I doubt it's different. After one minute, a message shows up asking if
you have trouble with your password and giving instructions.

I think we can all agree that shutting the system down is not the appropriate
behavior, right?
