We are not only interested in change of state, but rather if the cache is valid or not. If an impurity is removed and another added, then that needs to be noted as well. Note: strictly speaking we don't need to invalidate the cache on entry removal (that's why things worked fine before this patch). And in fact recalculating the cache on every removal of an impurity might well cause worse performance than not doing that. So this could be further optimized to differentiate between removal and addition of impurity and only "garbage collect" old caches occasionally. But lets not get lost in such details for now.
