request.values combines request.args and request.form. GET requests can have form bodies (although it's undefined / ambiguous in specs). Poorly implemented caching proxies may not understand that GET requests can have form data, which would allow form data to invisibly affect a public cached URL.

Now request.values won't use request.form if request.method == "GET".
