Are there any downsides to tracking calories by the week as opposed to daily?
For instance, my current goal is to maintain. If I enjoy a caloric surplus on training days, but counteract that surplus with an equal deficit on rest days, would this be the same as hitting maintenance calories daily?

Yeah I understand, but are there any downsides that come with tracking your cal intake over bigger time frames? Can I expect fluctuations in weight for example?

Of course it's a terrible idea.
If you set a 14,000 calorie limit for 7 days but consume 4000 in just one day then you're kind of fucked.
Do what makes you happy. Life is too short to do otherwise.
