I think that's the conclusion that TFA reaches also. However the premise it was started from is how Mastodon and Mastodon-likes do not do that.

From Mastodon's point of view there hardly are any '3-rd party' objects. Mastodon wants to store the whole world locally (which is one of the pain points that its admins find out sooner or later) instead of using the web as it was intended and saving shallow copies of remote objects that get refreshed when users want to access them. :(
