Look, if you reboot a laptop instead of suspending/hibernating it,
sooner or later you're going to have to think "Hmm, it hasn't fscked for
a while". It shouldn't be a surprise when it does.

It is a small mistake, not worth bothering about, unless of course you
persist in disclaiming your own responsibility and blaming your tools.
