Since you insist:

- assume 8 manual triggers per year
- 52 weeks
- 17 cronjobs

> 8/(52 * 17)
[1] 0.009049774

-> the trigger rate is below 1%! It remains in the noise (for me).

This 0.9% does not justify at all any complex PHP programming just to tell
people that the HTML pages are weekly updated.
In the end the time stamp of the individual *document* matters. And that's
almost everywhere in the underlying description.html files.
