If it's done on a per AP basis, and only happens when nobody is connected, it
probably doesn't have much effect. This will work when there aren't a lot of
users so the various APs go completely idle on a regular basis.
If a client tries to connect right after it has gone idle, they will just end up
connecting to a more remote AP (assuming there is one in range)

Question: how does that "constant" restarting affect network QoS/throughput?

So there's the auto mode in OpenWrt but that only considers the state
of the wifi spectrum at the ifup of the wifi adapter, correct? So if
things drastically change later, the AP would stay on the same channel
and not switch.
what we do in our custom solution:
restart the wifi after the last station has left.
that triggers often and reshuffles the channels...
