The ETag header used in it's strong from means that it must be
changed whenever bits of an entity are changed. This basically
means that ETag headers have to be removed by filters which change
a response content.

Weak ETags may be preserved, though they are not supported by
nginx yet. Mostly because Last-Modified is good enough
alternative to week ETags.
