Please think about what you are saying. don't just reply for the sake
of replying... think about it.

You are suggesting that somehow, out of the blue a relay server will
cache data and choose what to display, (or not!).

And then, just for fun, my browser will pick and choose what to show
me.
"Maybe I will cache that page, maybe I wont"

please don't insult my, or your, intelligence.

Let me bring you back to reality, what will happen is the browser will
ask if a page has been changed if not, it will display it otherwise it
get a new version of the page.

either way, my server is asked for the page and I will log that.

No server/browser and most certainly no relay server picks and chooses
what to show.
