Sometimes a style that is recently added might not seem to work, simply because the old style was still being cached.

If there is a rule that didn't use !important, and you can only figure out how to override it with !important, then if that rule becomes !important, you will have no way to override it even with your own !important. And if one person starts to use !important by default, and other people start to need to use !important to override other !important, then we run into a proliferation of !important when you won't be able to override lots of rules even with your own !important.
