Without that diode function it is also beep beep....
Except when you hear beep, it is dead short (not really actually, so you have to look to the screen anyways), if you hear short beep it is capacitor discharging.
With diodes, I like to know if it is schottky or not, (or germanium in the old days, or SiC maybe?)
Diode with capacitor will beep in both directions.. But show different settled value. And my preference is for non latched continuity, because it will beep differently in different directions..
Lot of troubleshooting I do on plugged in device (if it doesn't smoke, that is), and try to isolate bad part functionally, not by testing components in bulk.. So I end up with "it's somewhere here", and then, most of the time you pull the critical parts out to test them in isolation, because other components make proper testing hard.
Don't get me wrong, if it is helpful to the way you work, that's great. But Martin and me ( and I would guess many others across the world) that developed their techniques around different available instruments and different environment (there is a difference in engineering approach between US, EU, Japan...) got used to something else and don't find it so important. That is normal.
