Yes true, but in some cases, some servers are both, using views, try
tell a small business with 3 staff and only a combined mail/web, plus
one DNS (I act as secondary so that saves them a bit) that they need to
install another server, dedicated to caching if they insist of having
this feature enabled :) - this resembles countless small business and
SOHO setups, so it would be advantageous in future releases if it can
not currently, be configured using views.
