How do those affect automated processes though? If the automation were to fail somehow during a freeze window, then surely that would be a case of fixing a system and thus not covered by the freeze window.

I'm not sure what you mean by "CT logs", but I assume it's something to do with the certificate renewal automation. I can't see that you'd be creating GBs of logs that would be difficult to handle. Even a home-based selfhosted system would easily cope with certificate logs from running it hourly.
