Browsers partition their caches by origin and third-party origin (it's a bit more complex than that in reality) so common third-party resource e.g. fonts, used on one site won't be reused on another
Instead a fresh version of the font will will be fetched
Safari's done this since 2013 (?), and Chromium & Firefox adopting the same behaviour in 2020 (?)
