cl: top lcd stays lit when the cl should be asleep

just took a walk with the camera on a strap hanging against my stomach. on my other cameras i have the evf auto switch set up and even though the evf gets activated when the back is against your body, they still go into the power saving sleep mode. as i've been setting up the cl, so far when the back lcd has gone off, so has the top lcd. i saw settings to leave it off or on or on auto and i have it on auto. the s1, which has a top lcd, only has off or on, not auto.

anyone know why it stays on when the back of the camera is against the body and supposedly the evf is active? does the cl still go to sleep. there's likely a logical way to check whether it does, but it escapes me right now.
