This was done to prevent inconsistencies between the backend and the frontend that are usually caused by page caching. Clearing cache manually might still be needed when you make changes, especially on individual forms. This is not a problem with the plugin itself, but it’s how caching mechanism works in general, if a static copy of the page is being served to the users, changes to the backend will not reflect on the frontend until you clear cache.
