Sometimes, a capacitor's failure also cause invisible damage to other ICs, it's pretty annoying since some ICs can't just use volt-meter to check if it is still functional.

One of the things I hate most about electrolytic caps is the failure mode that drips corrosive liquid over your PCB. Not only does it fail, it makes sure to take the rest of the board with it.
