At the same time, avoiding caffeine in people who are not sensitive to it may be a wasted effort and a loss of an enjoyment unnecessarily.

Good wishes,

Fair enough. Then please heed your own warning and preface your recommendation to completely abstain from caffeine - the recommendation you give now and again citing a potentially outdated p-doc advice -
With the list of "special conditions and sensitivities" that make such a recommendation applicable.
