Sometimes there just isn't much more to mention than "things are going well" or "things are done". Both of which I would expect a competent team to take as the default if nothing is being said, with the difference between the two shown through your list of issues / graphs / whatever people are using to track progress. At which point, if all you have to say is the default, it isn't that difficult to criticize the usefulness of doing things daily.

On the other end, having to report things based on a timeframe that tight relative to the work done will quickly devolve towards finding things to report on, no matter how unnoteworthy. Teach people to speak up and show noteworthy things instead and have a bit of faith in your other metrics and report pipelines.

So if the point is to gather and declare "no update" maybe there is no point, really? And if you have something else than "no update", why not to share it with relevant persons only, at any convenient time?

Somehow these last two sentences seem to contradict each other.
