I see what you mean, but I suspect that it's just a question of coverage, i.e., how can you use the large capacitor chip diameter 1 inch on the top of a (physically) small capacitor since most of the chip will be just hanging off in empty space? And the small capacitor chip is only, what, 1/8 inch diameter? So, a small capacitor chip on a large cap is probably not beneficial due to the coverage issue. But for physically small caps the small cap is OK. How many synthetic atoms can you squeeze into a 1/8 inch Diameter dot? Answer at 11.
