Depends on def of 'old-timer' - I am >60 :-)
The caps I mentioned caused probs in mid1990s . The life-vs-volts was
available in the manufacturer data that the Lab used. Often very detailed
spec sheets were sourced from the manufacturers. And capacitor purchases
were in the millions - promoted a degree of cooperation.
"with electrolytics, you want to run them as
close as the max rated voltage as possible." is exactly what I was
attempting to impart :-((
