This comes down to the user's personal preference. Neither way is "correct."

Qubes OS version:
R3.2
Expected behavior:
When xscreensaver is invoked it should power down the display in addition to blanking it, to reduce power consumption and backlight lifetime.
Actual behavior:
Display remains powered, backlight is still on, power consumption is high.
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Wait a few minutes.
General notes:
The correct(?) behaviour can be selected in System Settings - xscreensaver - Advanced - Display Power Management, "Power management enabled" and "Quick Power-off in Blank Only Mode".
