Interesting way to stop cacheing of webpages

I like this one

*From Google.com

If you wish to prevent Google from displaying snippets for your pages, use the following tag:

<META NAME="GOOGLEBOT" CONTENT="NOSNIPPET">

Note: removing snippets also removes cached pages.

Now surely that is easier than hopeing a no-cache meta tag will work.

But what description does it show in the SERPS?

thanks for reminding me on that option.

There seem to have been mixed results in the past though:

I wonder if any of those posters would care to comment on the implementation as of now?

Maybe GG can clarify.
