Why on EARTH is Time Machine backing up these caches?

I just had a 15GB backup start on my machine, after systematically removing any possible stuff that shouldnt being backed up.


I ran tmutil compare -s


and Lo-and-Behold:


/Users/$USER/Pictures/Photos Library.photoslibrary/iPod Photo Cache


Why on EARTH is this not in the standard exclude list?

Safari-OTHER, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5)
