They've done 3 Tuesdays in a row, but that doesn't mean it's a regular
pattern, especially since it was Wednesdays during the month before that.

I believe the advertised "regular" maintenance window for Steam is 4:00 PM

Of course, they don't always get started right at 4:00 PM.
The TF2 release was announced at 4:26 PM (Pacific).
Yes, to be fair, today they apparently did not get started on the Steam
maintenance until 4:54 PM (Pacific).
Basically, my point being ... why would you release something that EVERYBODY
has to download and apply, during (even or approaching) the regularly-scheduled
maintenance window for the system that provides the download/update function?
It's like saying, "hey everyone! download and apply this mandatory fix immediately!" ...
then laughing and saying "you didn't think you could actually DO that now? did you?....
ha-ha-ha, DENIED!"
Anyway, it's just a game I guess. So, not really upset.
Just thought it was ... eh ... un-coordinated.

While I agree the timing could be better, the Steam update didn't start
until roughly 15 minutes ago and the TF2 update was an hour ago.
