In context of browser cache hint I don't think it matters if the timestamp
is correct or not. It should be fine as long as the value is consistent and
only change when the file is actually modified.

Perhaps, browsers are somewhat smarter then you would need to make
sure the most recent mod timestamp is always greater than previous ones.
