Yeah you got it exactly right. Does voting and add... @curvefi

Yes, voting and adding additional weight can work as a "checkpoint" for updating boost, but only in the sense that it can help ensure that the system is running correctly. Claiming, depositing, and withdrawing from a gauge can help to update boost, but it is not the only way to do so. Other methods such as adjusting the stake weight, adjusting the voting power, or adjusting the number of votes cast can also be used to update boost. Ultimately, it is up to the user to decide which method is best for their particular situation.

claim/deposit/withdraw from a gauge will update boost

hmm i don't think so
