I was thinking to avoid having to redraw the regular time signature
and the barline, but on second thought maybe that's not such a big deal.

I am the OP. Unchecking this setting does not prevent Finale from updating

It's quite easy to add graphical time sigs that works correctly with

Hi Mark,
Hide the real barline. Hide the courtesy time signature. Add extra space at the
end of the measure (Measure Attributes -> Extra Space at End). Add a graphic
barline as an expression. Add both the 6/2 and the 3/1 time signatures as
expressions.

This function, designed to prevent scroll-view note entry into MM rests, also
forces an update layout when printing.
I looked quickly through the post
How about creating an extra measure at the end of the system just to place the
3/1 expression? Change the fake rest into a real one, hide it, and create a
new region for measure numbers, so the numbering would continue normally. You
might need to choose an invisible barline for the extra measur
