It may relate to the fact that once neutralized with 180 out of phase
Voltage the capacitance need not vary (for any frequency) as long as the
input or output tank remains balanced as is used for push pull
operation. The tubes capacitance doesn't change with frequency, the
amount of miller effect feed back does and amount of degenerative
feedback does and matches it. Self canceling.
Or they could have not neutralized the stage and got lucky.
