Yes this is the advantage of active resistance (no pun intended)
At least capacitive is safe as it simply won't work.
A diode (using a diode is only possible with resistors) is not safe as plugged into DC it will let though everyhing and your filaments might burn out.
The cap is probably the best as, as you said, no 50Hz exists here plus no DC MAINs left.
