I'd say then you're trading one security property for another.

Changing keys regularly is imho a good thing, it gives you some kind of
weak forward secrecy property. IMHO more valuable and less error prone
than HPKP.

Imagine someone gets access to an old backup or harddisk of yours. If
you regularly switch keys he won't get an active private key from you.
If you reuse private keys he will.
