Hello Brad,
Yes, I agree with you it does not take too long!
Chas one the last capacitors that I can think of is Sprague orange drops.
as was talked about not every capacitor works best in every circuit and even the radios that I work on I mark or tag and use photos of my work so that I don't lose my place and like you some of my sets have been sitting for some time like a few years .

Sincerely Richard
P.S. great article !
