Current behavior

When I click anywhere on angular.io, the website always fetches all favicons (total of 19.3 KB).

Expected behavior

The site gets them only once.

Minimal reproduction of the problem with instructions

Go to https://angular.io, open the Network tab in the DevTools and click on the page. Only happens on Google Chrome.

What is the motivation / use case for changing the behavior?

The website downloads way more content than it needs to.
