You don't get it. This is all wrong. You want to do it in a way that works bet in most situations. That is to make sure the small-caps are lowercase and then they will render correctly in software that support small-caps..

Don't use some non-standard font that doesn't work the way most fonts do. That's not good form.
You are criticising something you haven't attempted to acquaint yourself with. I am doing it in a way that works best in all situations. Take the time to understand it rather than knee-jerk denounce based on ideas you haven't changed in a long while. This way of doing it isn't very well known, sure, but it works perfectly well where it is supported, and is passed over where not with a better fallback, since you can determine whether your hoped-for small caps fall back to lowercase or full cap uppercase. Don't write something off just because it is currently outside of your knowledge.

I am talking about OTF fonts with built-in c2sc and smcp functionality that is often turned off by default but can be turned on with the requisite stylesheet, and font-variant can also be used secondarily for smcp.

But I think you aren't really interested in this. Others might be.
