More temporary at some times of the year than others. When schools can only afford to have pianos tuned once or twice a year, it makes NO sense to tune them at the times of year when they are at the far opposing ends of the climactic range. They're NEVER in tune then, because you're always doing large pitch corrections, which by nature will render a piano back out of tune in a few days.

If there were special times to do it, then we would all be VERY busy for the 1 or 2 weeks it is just right to tune. Tuning is never a waste, but is always temporary.
