Well, its note the entire website, and i find the "last 100 articles" rule way better than "last 3" or "last 90 days" (which some times is 0 or 1).

The host is fine with sending 0.5 MiB once (the client should be aswell from both a bandwidth and storage point of view).

The host is not fine with sending 0.5 MiB every 20 minutes, which could be easily avoided if the client would use the mentioned "If-Modified-Since header".
