What is Koha doing if I adjust the loan period? It does not change the due
dates in the system. The due date was set with the active guidelines of that
moment. You could say: Doing the same for holds is consistent :)

If the library closes, they should stop confirming holds in due time, limiting
the number of waiting holds. Pending holds are no problem. The pickup date
should be calculated at confirm hold time.
They could also stop the cron job for cancelling holds until they processed the
holds queue after reopening? Would they really need a db update?
