AS REPORTEDno primary record reached; this is what the reporting says

Is it true that Capacitance is measured in farads rather than coulombs?

Yes. Capacitance is fundamentally defined and measured in farads (where one farad equals one coulomb per volt), which are the standard international units for capacitance rather than coulombs alone.
