Use "font-variant: small-caps".

If the device supports it, great. If not, no big deal.

In most use-cases, the smallcaps are things that are decorative only (first word). Very rarely are they essential.
It depends. For some thing like '7am' the 'am' would be better as small caps, but it doesn't matter too much if not. But for historical works littered with BC/AD and BCE/CE then small caps I would say are essential. Some might regard it as a nicety, but obviously 'bc/ad' are going to be a bad fallback, so you'd either be forced to use full caps, which can dominate a page far too much, or a span class and smaller font size.
