Comment(by nickm):
So, microdesc validity is "for a week after it was last listed."
Microdescs can't be at fault here.
routerinfo_t validity is complicated; there's a lot of code that checks
its published_on field. ROUTER_MAX_AGE is 48 hours, so might not be at
fault, though we might have a rule to never prune a routerinfo_t in our
current consensus if we don't have one. There are about 10 places that
look at the 24-hour ROUTER_MAX_AGE_TO_PUBLISH, though, and I wonder
whether all of them are correct.
