Assuming Arial does not have small-caps variants,
There is no reason to assume such things; it is a fact that can be checked.

I don't think it did. It may have changed the symptoms so that you don't
see the problem.
Verdana hasn't got small-caps either. You are still seeing synthetic
(algorithmic, fake) small-caps, which do not match the style of normal
letters because they are just capital letters in reduced size. The
distortion naturally varies by font face and size.
