shutting off is a good thing or a bad thing?

No good no bad, Not direct relate to vipassana. Like a exercise of mind.
If we could not when we are arahunt. We are a dry-visioned Arahant (Sukkhavipassaka) or liberation through wisdom (Pannàvimutti).
If we could, when we are arahunt. We are a jhana Arahant (jhanalabha) or deliverance of mind (Cetovimutti).

There are more detail of Cetovimutti but IMO we are not this type.
