TL;DR

AI summary of the plugin's readme

This plugin is for WordPress site owners who want a lightweight fix for the missing Vary: Accept-Encoding header warning. It solves this by adding a single rewrite rule to the site's .htaccess file so caches correctly account for content encoding, without adding unrelated performance features.
