That way Squid will use their content until it becomes too far out of date, whiel storing new objects into the witable cache_dir. It should not be a big problem/cost to drop the cache anyway. The bandwidth to rebuild a cache is far smaller than most people expect. Much of the content in a large cache is stale objects waiting revalidation or replacement, and all HITs are duplicates by definition. The cache fill rate is an exponential/polynomial growth curve with the bulk of it being a few seconds/minutes worth of traffic.
