Exactly. In case no cached version existed one could think of more
elaborate rules to reduce captcha usage even more, as for example
(although I'm not very well versed in HTTP) GET requests which have
no variables involved should work fine as well.

I don't know other people's browsing behaviour, but for me being able to
read the cached content would have sufficed in 100% of cases.
