Similarly, it is a *requirement* that TLPs keep their DOAP files and
other aspects of their project websites updated. So it's a really good
thing for podlings to get in this habit before graduation.

Separately, I'd love to hear any comments about how this kind of
requirement is expressed in the graduation guides. I.e. is it clear,
even to normal humans (i.e. 99.99% of the world who are not Incubator
experts) that these things are required of TLPs before (and after)
graduation?

It is up to your project members.
This metadata is used by various processes to assist with managing
the many projects in the Incubator. Please do not expect other
people to do it for you. This will not scale, either now or when
you are TLPs.
Recently Clutch is detecting that there are many such issues [1].
The notes in that table try to assist by linking to some relevant
documentation.
Incoming projects need to add their details to content/podlings.xml
Incubating projects need to keep that content up-to-date.
Outgoing projects need to adjust that content as they go through the
graduation phases.
This then assists all volunteers to assist all volunteers.
