Grr. It's SOAP all over again. I sort of get the rationale, but this basically kills a lot of default cache controls.

I don't know why anybody finds this surprising or remarkable. My local doughnut café doesn't do metal fabrication and other light engineering works either.
Oil & gas producers account for only 1% of total clean energy investment globally (& >60% of this from just four companies). For the moment the oil & gas industry as a whole is a marginal force in the world’s transition to a clean energy system. iea.org/reports/the-oi…
