Guidance spamming is used in at least two ways in this thread. One is the hypothetical of casting and recasting in a chain to span the whole duration of the task, if a DM were to rule that way.
This is an example of the DM creating the problem.
The other is the actuality of players who are allowed to apply guidance to any check, always doing so because it is a nigh-free resource.
It's not really free, though. It requires mental focus, which means effort. If a player tried that in my game, he'd quickly find out that trying to stay focused for that long of a period of time is not only not possible, but would quickly become mentally tiring and exhaustion levels would set in for a while. People just can't concentrate on things every minute like that.
