Macrophages have long been considered as particularly plastic cells. However, recent work combining fate mapping, single-cell transcriptomics and epigenetics has undermined the macrophage plasticity dogma. Here, we discuss recent studies that have carefully dissected the response of individual macrophage subsets to pulmonary insults and call for an adjustment of the macrophage plasticity concept. We hypothesize that prolonged tissue residency shuts down much of the plasticity of macrophages and propose that the restricted plas
