When you are switching branches back and forth, the local results get rebuilt over and over again, even if you are building something that has already been built before.
The build cache remembers the earlier build results, and greatly reduces the need to rebuild things when they have already been built locally.
This can also extend to rebuilding different commits, like when running `git bisect`.
