True, but on the other hand the engineering required to make this work is considerable. The "bfcache" was a major 1.5 piece of work ... it basically caches the DOM/calculated layout trees or something like that, which can go really weird on pages that expect to be reset when users navigate to them. There's tons of hairy logic involved in not breaking web pages when you optimize out the page refresh :(
