...so prehaps MA3 should quit running when a screensaver kicks in, or when the monitor turns off.... After all, no sense in heating up the CPU.

There are a lot of combinations that don't make sense to some people, and that are perfectly sensible to other folks. MA3 used as a screensaver doesn't make sense to Jim. But he provides the capability, because it makes sense to a lot of customers.
