Seems strange to me since the Capo frame is at least as good a quality as the former.

No, the components aren't great. It's an entry level bike. You're paying a slight premium for the frame, which I think IS worth more money that the other, cheaper, aluminum bikes.

I bought a used Capo a while back and plan to keep it and eventually repaint and upgrade components - not before I've used up what it came with though. I will say that I"m surprised by the quality of the wheels. I've hit several large things in the road lately that resulted in double pinch-flats. The wheels took it fine.
it's actually the exact same frame as the latest cannondale "track" version. With the exception of the cable stops.
people however, still cream themselves over the 90's version of cannondales track frame
