AFAIK, Caddy is the only integrated ACME client that is tuned for short-lived certificates. All its own self-signed certs are already 24-hour certificates, so 6-day certs will be no problem.

I'm happy to agree that caddy is easier, but the claim here is that it's "tuned for short-lived certificates", which... I guess could be true, but I seriously doubt that it's meaningful (on the basis that reloading certs isn't exactly expensive on any other major web server, so even if the most obvious interpretation is true and the made it take, say, 100 ms instead of 1000 ms, but we're talking about reloading every few days, who cares?).
Why would that matter? Replacing the cert and sighup'ing nginx or whatever isn't functionally different from doing it in-process.
