Thank you for the feedback thus far. It appears that there are different types of questions and answers with respect to their cacheability. Some seem to be highly cacheable, such as static factual questions, some seem to be not cacheable at all, e.g., instantaneous weather conditions, and others seem to be cacheable for a known duration, e.g., some sports data.
Also, thanks for the 100k context window Anthropic hyperlink (https://www.anthropic.com/index/100k-context-windows). With Wikianswers, we might, at least at first, consider caching with respect to questions with zero or small context windows. We could consider also context windows containing one Wikipedia article to be an interesting topic. With something like Wikianswers, we could explore techniques for providing the community of editors means of receiving notifications when answers of interest to them, e.g., sports-related, were due to exit or had exited the cache or were otherwise in need of upkeep.
