Consider for a moment the possibility that 99% of this cap tweaking lore is pure baloney. Consider the possibility that boutique manufacturers like Dennis either deliberately or naively promote these esoteric ideas because it is profitable and enhances their egos and reputations. Consider the possibility that the emperor has no clothes.
My advice: Use high-quality industrial components of the correct value for your circuit. Do not play games with multiple stacked components unless you thoroughly understand the objective implications of same. Dress your leads as appropriate for your mechanical design. Shun unsubstantiated tweako lore. Be skeptical. Look to where the money leads. Focus on first principles. Avoid demagoguery.
