Ah, makes sense, thanks for the explanation!

How do we define close to zero? On my system, there are 5 apps that
always seem to have AS_APP_STATE_UNKNOWN:
gs_plugin_appstream_startup: 8: 'UEFI-dummy-dev0' ('UEFI Updates'): 0
gs_plugin_appstream_startup: 9: 'com.via.VL811.firmware' ('VL811 Firmware'): 0
gs_plugin_appstream_startup: 10: 'com.via.VL811+.firmware' ('VL811+ Firmware'): 0
gs_plugin_appstream_startup: 11: 'com.via.VL812.firmware' ('VL812 Firmware'): 0
gs_plugin_appstream_startup: 12: 'com.via.VL812_B2.firmware' ('VL812 B2
Firmware'): 0
So I'm not really sure how to precisely define when an apt update is
required or not.
