"by placing codensators near heatsources"

Oh you mean like every power source is designed today?

There are several engineering reasons to do that, they don't do that to spite people

And it's called capacitor (in the XXI century at least)

In Sweden, we call them "Kondensatorer", i.e using the old form. For me, this causes quite a lot of jumbled/mixing of words, as my friends and I typically switch randomly between English and Swedish versions of component names.

Also, even in English condenser mics still refuse to become cap mics.

Capacitors in automotive ignition systems are still called "condensers" too, for some reason.
