Is this how probabilistic caching and node specialization is supposed
to work?

I made a test with one of my pages:
SSK at padAbxDs9jixhld6wGLvZ0TyoFAPAgM/SSKvsCHK/2//CHK.html

On that page you see a picture of the Carina Nebula that consists of
80 images.

I loaded the page with my browser and reloaded it every 15 minutes. Each
time after the reload has been finished I took a screenshot of that page.
I set up a page to show you the 22 screenshots (scaled down & JPEGed):
CHK at oc94TebrBU86D2A4O3lLE2G9j4ENAwI,hz6Y0jPMJsyOJxYmI3yw6g/pcache_reload.html

My observation:
Images that were retrievable before weren't retrievable on the subsequent
reload! Even the whole HTML page wasn't found two times and I had to
increase the HTL to fetch it.

On other places I also saw NIM messages that disappeared after I reloaded
the page. And they weren't retrievable afterwards, not even at htl=25&try=3.
Greg Wooledge reported this on his freesite too.

Is my node really deleting recently fetched keys? Isn't it possible that
if my node wants to delete keys because they don't fit into its specialization,
 it first *checks* if the key is retrievable from other nodes at a *reasonable*
HTL???

I mean, what is happening with the old keys from my data store? My 'Least
recent file timestamp' is from the last year! What happens if I retrieve
a very old key from my data store and it doesn't fit into my node's 
specialization?
It is deleted and therefore nobody not even I myself will be able to
fetch it again?
