Actually, given that the LSP is held liable if the TXID never confirms, and the splice TXID has as input the previous funding txo, this is actually risky for the LSP.

Even if the client has given revocation keys for all states dependent on the previous funding txo, the client can still post, and have confirmed, a revoked state.
This prevents the LSP from ever getting the splice TXID confirmed.
The client loses all its funds in the channel, but in exchange the LSP is held liable for not getting the splice TXID confirmed and the LSP reputation is destroyed.
