It sounds like you know what you're talking about. I was going to say something, but I really wasn't sure of myself based on my limited experience. However, I found it very difficult to believe that a little 0.05-uF capacitor could kill someone. I thought it might be there to absorb the back-EMF pulse caused by an instantly collapsing magnetic field that sometimes occurs when turning off a transformer.
Thanks for the excellent information.
Best regards,
