It will stop caching, at lest unless there is an ETag or Last-Modified.

Note: The RFC do not forbid caching, only to consider the response fresh
without explicit expiry time or validation. So it's fine.

However, there is still the HTTP/1.0 "MUST NOT cache" requirement. Not
really an idea what that's about however.
