This case is an obvious example.
I was only "suggesting" a better way to handle this kind of problem from a
general POV.
Both methods work ok, but if you set cache headers "far in the future"
(e.g. handling static files with a webserver like apache or nginx) there is
a caveat using the "vars" method: referenced resources in your css have the
same url, so they are not fetched back with the css.
With versioned folders, instead, relative references works ok, so if the
css is /static/1.2.3/css/main.css and has background:
url(../img/someimage.png) the image is fetched at
/static/1.2.3/img/someimage.png.
