Agreed. SMD components fail silently.
This is pedantic, but there are indeed capacitors there. They’re all surface mount components, so they don’t look like the caps that people typically talk about replacing, and they likely aren’t what caused it to fail. Anything labeled on the board with a C## is likely a SMD capacitor.
I’m not sure you understand what “objectively” actually means… Care to provide your data in support of your objective conclusion?
