Comment (by aidvu):

 Thanks for the reply @peterwilsoncc. Fwiw, I'd probably go for both.

 A `wp_maybe_schedule()` as the new function to properly ensure a single
 recurring event is registered, and a limiter for recurring events which
 conforms to the requirements you mentioned above.

 Will try to get both done in the coming weeks.
