Maybe doesn't help overall but this can be equivalently written as:
s + '1 day'::interval as period_end
Resorting to a window function here is expensive waste, the lead() value
can be computed, not queried.

This seems better written (semantically, not sure about execution dynamics)
as:
FROM periods AS p
LEFT JOIN LATERAL (SELECT count(distinct? d.id) FROM data AS d WHERE
d.timestamp >= p.period_start AND d.timestamp < p.period_end AND d.sn =
'BLAH') AS cnt_d
-- NO grouping required at this query level
