Weekly maintenance happens every week, generally with an estimated downtime of about 4 hours for all back end maintenance and configuration (though the servers often come up earlier than that). This occurs each week, regardless of how many player facing changes or bug fixes are included.
I don’t have eyes on how SGR is allocating all their engineers and devs on a one to one basis, but in my experience in game dev generally there are a number of various team members that have different specialties. For example, I can confirm that bots and anti-cheat systems are a top priority, but that doesn’t mean 100% of the team is working on this, and even if they were it likely wouldn’t be effective. There will always be other folks and teams working on future updates, builds, bugs, etc.
