In reality apps would keep their own cache and indicies of your data for faster and more reliable access.

So there's an immediate consistency problem the user may or may not have the tools to fix because they rely on the application exposing a bespoke cache refresh. Is this solved for in solid?

wasn't this a problem for http? any private network could funnel traffic through a reverse proxy cache and you end up with (potential) issues. Seemed to work ok for HTTP in general?
