Thanks Vesa.

 

One add-on question (if I may!)... What is the behaviour for provider hosted add-ins embedded on SPO pages? Guessing the referrer in this case would be the add-in as it's just an iframe on the SPO page, and therefore any assets used by the add-in would not be able to be served via the SharePoint CDN?

That's correct. Since URL is not *.sharepoint.com, it cannot take advantage of the CDN as such. Obviously you could usage some third party CDN in these cases, but that has additional costs.
