It seems to me that's not a lot different from leaving the cache out in
plain sight, or posting any other kind of unencrypted spoiler.
I went to the cache page. I'm guessing you deleted the entry and
notified the logger of what you did and why you did it. That's probably
what I'd have done in your shoes; sometimes you have the luxury of
emailing the logger and asking them to correct it themselves first, but
given the situation as you described it, that doesn't make sense here.
The one thing I'd disagree with you on is I would be inclined to take
the same actions regardless of the difficulty level. Posting the end
coordinates of any multi is a spoiler.
