"Than, explain to me a third way to connect the coupling capacitor?"
The third way to connect a "coupling capacitor" is the infinite impedance way - the leadout wires are connected to air and not to anything else in the audio circuit. The capacitor is left in a parts bin where it can do no harm.
It is much better to avoid using a "coupling capacitor" if possible in your 2-stage SE tube amp circuits unless a "mid-fi" result is acceptable.
Sometimes "mid-fi" is good enough for a secondary audio system.

I enjoy my mid-fi.
Everything is a compromise - including direct coupling.
"I enjoy my mid-fi."
That is not the mindset of MLP design team members or others who want to be the absolute best in competitive audiophile environments like trade shows.
"Everything is a compromise - including direct coupling."
Men like DF "never compromise" and that is why he has dominated listening rooms at RMAF since 2004. Everything must be "state of the art" technology to be brought before a public audience.
That being said, "mid-fi" gear can sound OK but have realistic expectations for performance. Good for basements, bedrooms or the garage but not center stage auditions.

Like I said, if there was any value to it, I would show you just how mistaken you are. It is a worthless exercise, and the worst I could do is to let you keep your ideas.

Friend, I would not hurt thee for the world...but thou art standing where I am about to shoot.

Another positive and motivational comment from the "Pork Projector", LOL.
You have a special and blessed day, sir.
