Yes, I should implement scorched-earth cache busting and force a complete reload of all bundles, because one craptastic browser relies on aggressive caching so that their complimentary ad services doesn’t bog down website performance. That’s exactly how the web should be.

I mean, if you're not whole into the js ecosystem you can just use a cache buster parameter on your js requests in development, but I think the recommended approach is to use module splitting so that parts of the bundle that don't change remain the same. Alternatively if you just hate caching you can set cache control headers on your js. I think tying caching behavior to Google's web sites is silly, caching is a crucial part of performance for any heavy web application.
