In some cases when a query completes there are still pending transactions that are no longer useful to answer the query. But if this query is repeated in the future and we don't have the answers cached, we're going to ask and ignore the answer again. Instead of purging these superfluous transactions, let's wait and see if they produce an answer, since we already asked the question, and use it to fill our cache.
