Comment (by QantumThemes):

 Hello @westonruter and thanks for the answer, I understand what you mean,
 still this represents a wrong behavior as the cache should be refreshed
 when the content changes and the original "oEmbedded" content is not there
 anymore.

 If this was normal, would mean that accessing to the same data in
 different ways could provide different results, leaking in consistency.

 I don't understand why WP can't simply re-parse the content on save to
 check if the oembed cache needs refreshing.

 Making this operation manually IS possible, but is not what a theme or
 plugin should do.

 What people expects is that you change the data and the content changes.
 As technicians we can explain whatever tech reason we want, but still is
 not the correct thing that should happen...
 Well, I hope someone will fix it soon.
 Thanks!
