Default Re: capacitors in series - pitfalls?

Oh dear, I did stir up a hornets nest didn't I?

On a sane note, the Philips 462A with several series parallel capacitor networks inside waxy casings is in spite of frequent use still healthy and beautiful, and occupies pride of place in my sitting room. It's been there since 2007!, so perhaps pragmatism is the best approach.
