A few weeks back the water pump went out. I put the top in service mode, turned the car off, bit Did Not alarm the car. Yesterday I found the battery dead.

Does not alarming the car make the battery discharge quicker for some odd reason?

Appreciate any opinions, and of course the humorous replies!
Batteries are "consumables" like tires or brake pads, they are not forever and typically die without notice.
