Well… the cache can be broken. I’m not a Java dev so have no horse in this race but “it’s just a cache” doesn’t mean “it can’t ever be a problem”

Having worked with maven for about 15 years… it’s largely not a problem anymore. Unless you publish snapshots and depend on them.

If “it’s just a cache,” you should never be able to fix a build problem by nuking your cache. But I frequently can.
