RE: Cathode bypass cap removed and I like it

Bias is DC.

The bypass capacitor prevents AC from forming across the cathode resistor when the tube is feed signal. This prevents the local current feedback that would otherwise occur.

The DC condition does not change when the bypass cap is removed so there is no reason to change the cathode resistor value.
