I think this is where things go wrong. OnBootSec handles powerdowns, what about intermittent connections? In principle, it is quite possible everytime the timer triggers the makecache service, the connection is absent.
Which shouldn't matter. If no connection is available, metadata won't
get updated until you run an interactive command that forces a refresh. Note that if you're on battery, makecache won't run, either. This is a convenience function to reduce the delay in running interactive commands, and nothing more.

Do you have references for the on-battery behavior? That's news to me.
