James, I do not think that manage_etc_hosts has any implication on cloud-init after an 'update'. Unless your hostname were to change during that update.
I think the best thing for you to do is a.) stop doing that b.) figure out why you needed to do it and file a bug. Basically we do not expect that you should need to run 'cloud-init init' on a running system. So... any reason for doing so is probably a bug, but we need more information.
