I can see how this would work on a technical level but what's the intended use case?

The validity is just 6 days, so I'd assume it's not for long lived use cases? Or am I misunderstanding something

they're only for publicly accessible IP addresses, so they'd work the same as regular letsencrypt certs - get a new one when the old one expires.
