Answering my own question, again, on my Debian bookworm machine, there's a `/etc/cron.daily/apt-compat` script (for systemd-less systems) and a `apt-daily.service` service. The latter does `/usr/lib/apt/apt.systemd.daily update` which, if `APT::Periodic::Update-Package-Lists` is set in apt-config(8), will periodically update the package list. I believe that is the canonical and normal way of doing this.
