"Old" is a relative term.  It was written last year, and I'm sure
there are improvements to be made.  Pretty much all SMT capacitor
choice for filters is C0G/NP0 now, sure X7R has improved over the
years, but for a specialised application the cost difference between
the two types is minimal.

I'll be sure to remove polycarbonate from the list in the next rev.
