Or to change the already considered response cache controls by the
source server.
If the source server thinks it worth caching then the only thing I can
think of is, why not cache? hey should know what is good for him.

There is another option and it is to use ICAP in order to modify the
response Cache related headers ONLY that will reflect that the server
content should not be cached.
But I suggest to choose another method of doing it like:
- properly config the media server
- explicitly deny cache by origin server.

the above is two directions:
1 - the server should be aware of what he is serving and how.
2 - the server content is not welcome in any way to be cached.
