But, I found the spec from the Chinese company that manufacturers the module (see attached); it still shows a total current draw for the module of 0.5ua during power-off (shut-down).
NOTE: The table values are only valid after removal of the power LED.
BTW: The few uA difference for my application would mean 6 to 8 months of additional operation on the battery; that's not so academic.

The Chinese manufacturer of that module has just repeated the chip characteristics without considering any other current draws around the module.
