Comment (by heikomamerow):

 Ok, see the point. Should we close the ticket then?

 That is because `WP_Site_Query` caches are invalidated on every change to
 any site (via `last_changed`), while `blog-id-cache` keys are only
 invalidated on updates to the specific site. So the `blog-id-cache` keys
 are much more "stable".

 > Merging this PR will cause increased churn, specifically because of
 `wpmu_update_blogs_date()`, by way of
 `_update_blog_date_on_post_publish()` and
 `_update_blog_date_on_post_delete()`.
