You know, the ones in the clear plastic blobs, wire
ended with low puffage values and reputed to be super stable? |

I always viewed them with suspicion when fault finding. Suflex were a particular make, rather than a type. There was another brand, Styroflex perhaps, which I think were similar.

What's your point? Perhaps you forgot or don't know that in general polystyrene capacitors are advantageous at audio frequencies while silver micas are advantageous at RF frequencies and fill two entirely needs.
