That's how it stands now, but in info '(gnus)Agent as Cache' it says:
"..Gnus normally only downloads *headers* once, and stores them in the
Agent"
"Articles are *not* cached in the Agent by default though (that would
potentially consume lots of disk space), but if you have *already
downloaded an article into the Agent*, Gnus will not download the
article from the server again but use the locally stored copy instead."
I did some digging, and this behaviour was changed due to bug#8502 where
Lars concludes (erroneously, on the face of it):
