Capacitors connected to the next component down the line have an entirely different purpose than decoupling capacitors you ask about in your question. Because charge can never flow through caps, a capacitor setup in that topology can have a little bit of charge pushed onto the cap before the plates saturate with charge. Once they saturate (or
