you could just buy in short to the uncapped cape... same risk reward if you can beat it just as well...

No disagreement here. Buying in short when the deep stacks are gambling and pushing each other off hands is a great spot for the short stack who understands how to play it. It's an especially good strategy if your BR doesn't allow the typical buy-in for the deep stack game (which in LA typically have bigger blinds).

Still, there's nothing like playing a long session in a capped buy game where you have developed the massive stack and the other fairly deep stacks don't play that well (especially with a deep stack). If a tough deep stack player walks by an open seat in "your" game he's going to have to start with a small stack meaning he will usually pass. In a sense "your" game is protected from "deep water" sharks.

My guess is we really don't disagree on much over the last few posts here.
