The difference is that the revision info is not set by the parser, so its
possible to know the current revision info before parsing. Categories are set
by the parser, so when saving a page, the function would be evaluated based on
the categories on the previous revision, which means you could potentially get
different behavior when saving vs. a null edit/cache expiry
