Updated Grub Package

I don’t think you have to run grub-install after an update anymore unless I’m sorely mistaken and about to screw up my system.

You should run it every time. For two reasons:

1. You never know when backwards incompatible changes will be introduced
2. If you don’t, you won’t be getting all of the updates including many of the security related updates.

You can make a pacman hook.
If I am not mistaken, it could be a set-and-forget solution.

Sure. As long as you understand the correct options to pass to grub-install, you can make a hook for a given installation. In most(but not all) cases, it is sufficient to run grub-install --no-nvram on UEFI installs.
