No, you have it the wrong way around. LocalisationUpdate runs daily because we used to do regular updates only every few weeks or even months, and so localisation updates were significantly delayed in being released.

However, I don't think that it's even been a satisfactory outcome to have random localisation cache issues created by a bot in an unattended, out-of-process production deployment. Nowadays given that we do production deployments almost every day, it's an unnecessary complication and weakness in the integrity of the service we offer our readers.
