No downside, but if you have your libraries and schematics already, you are=
 not going to redo everything.

There are several other standards for capacitor symbols, some of what I hav=
e already seen:

1) Polarized: one thick bar and one thin bar, unpolarized: 2 thin bars
2) Polarized: two thick bars, negative filled and positive hollow, unpolari=
zed: both bars filled.
3) Polarized: negative terminal in shape of U positive terminal straigth in=
side the U, unpolarized: two straight bars.
4) The alluded curved and straight bars versus two straight bars.
3) The same design as above with a plus sign in the polarized model.

Plus others.

And I never really got confused by them.
