No, I am saying that the problem you pointed at is a _larger_ problem in
http:// because those dev are having to actively prevent caching. Many
are also under the false impression that https:// goes end-to-end and
caching does not happen there other than Browser cache. So those who
develop sites with HTTPS in mind do not go to quite such extremes to
block proxies caching.
HTTPS has _other_ problems that impact on caching efficiency.
