Precisely.

The lack of smallcaps support is entirely an implementation problem, rather than a standards one.

For sure. I'm not aware of a single ereader that properly reads from the smallcaps portion of an OTF when given the font-variant instruction.
In my experience, your font has to have actual small-caps glyphs in the lowercase letter slots, for this to be pulled off on the broad range of ereaders we try to support these days.
