Originally the interval was supposed to be two days in the pre-release period, and seven days in the post-release period. It was changed to seven days for both, on the grounds that a large proportion of alpha/beta testers will be updating manually. I have no idea what proportion that's actually true for: if it's a low proportion, it would make sense to change the pre-release interval back to two days.
