The tactical voting in Caerphilly was on the Right, and thankfully minor; Plaid's increased share came from the collapse of Labour - and most of those who switched support won't be returning to Labour any time soon. Plaid was *always* the second party and the natural inheritor of Labour's demise.
Sterner tests will come in Wales.
