That one - and it shows b* drift of 0.15

rather 0.2, albeit you certainly refer to subset corresponding to ~140 measurements... in any case need to test with frequent calibration and post the results

does it work (as "fast" as strip reading by sliding spectrometer manually over printed target via ruler) with non flat targets (SG patches are sunken) ? I do not have the table, so may be I am wrong...
Spot metering stand is good help. But then again I think it is fast enough for lamp not to cool down substantially. The hand gets tired quite quickly though from repetitive movements.

I have not done such experiments but it would be interesting to measure at what point with regular measurements the lamp deposits start affecting measurements after initial reversing cycle.

Perhaps for Spectrolino the recycling procedure could be to perform several white patch calibrations one after the other in immediate succession - this could keep lamp sufficiently hot.

and how do you keep reheating the lamp there (in the said spectrolino) to deal with tungsten deposits while measuring the target like SG ?
In my experience, the Spectrolino doesn't suffer from this problem anywhere near as much as the i1pro, since it doesn't support scanning. It always measures one patch at a time.

for i1Pro* there are API calls (or workarounds) to instruct the spectrometer to heat its lamp from software on demand
Note that AFAIK such API calls are nothing to do with normal measurements, but a means of "fixing" or improving the lamp behavior by reconditioning it.

I dusted off one of my spectrolinos and did the following with argyll v1.9.2 spotread tool : 5 times calibration -> 10 times reading -> 5 times calibration -> 10 times reading ... 80 measurements total, the spectrometer was sitting on the same spot on calibration tile (not moved at all)

seems there is no drift then... at least with constant calibration

I use this FAGDI recommendation. It is essential to know its onw values.
