Yes I agree Ross/Stephen.  I didn’t mean to overstate the CDN fact.

I wonder what the answer is to Bill’s question is. “average, median and

maximum diameter (ip hop count) of the Internet? “

I'd argue that's just content (though admittedly a lot of it). You can't

cache, e.g., a SIP trunk, and offices which need to connect to each other

can't cache one another in a CDN either.

I would further argue that you can't cache active Web content, like bank
account statements, utility billing, help desk request/responses,
equipment status, and other things that change constantly.
