LSPS1 asks Lightning service providers not to change their own advertised prices in get_info more than once a day. The stated reason has nothing to do with fee stability for users -- it's that Lightning Explorers scraping those numbers 'may not be able to keep up with the changes' otherwise. And once a day was picked specifically because it matches the rate limit core-lightning already puts on gossip, so channel pricing moves exactly as fast as the gossip protocol allows it to.
