Hi.
The ESR is less important with a 50 or 100Hz ripple than the Khz ripple found in SMPS.
I will never forget the increased unreliability of sets that had a BY100 fitted along with a surge limiter, all sorts of nasties happened with capacitors failing and resistors going open circuit due to the much increased initial voltage.
