When should we aggressively cache API responses? You know, really go all-in on caching? That's the question.

Hey everyone, I've been thinking about API caching strategies lately. We've got a few endpoints that serve relatively static, but frequently accessed, data. I'm thinking about using aggressive caching (like, a week or more) for these. What are your thoughts? Are there any common pitfalls or specific scenarios where this kind of deep caching would be a bad idea, even if the data doesn't change often?
