When you hit the reload button, the browsers would still revalidate resources with long expiration dates. The fixes in the Facebook post are that Chrome changed to no longer do this on any subresource, and Firefox changed to no longer do this on cache-control: immutable resources.

I thought this was possible... that explains my frustration with "why won't the damn thing not revalidate" when I last tried it (I think that was a few years ago by now).
Weird though, it seems so obvious and I thought something like no-revalidate existed. I guess I'm confusing no-cache and must-revalidate.
