Oberallgäu is currently mapped as a political (not an administrative) boundary, so Sonthofen would be neither a capital, nor an administrative center of any relation. Correctly, its node has no capital=* or admin_level=* tags.

for the sake of clarity, I think it would be acceptable if we agreed that: - we place capital=* on actual capitals (not any admin_centre), since using numbers is more flexible than capital=yes and state_capital=yes (equivalent to capital=2 and capital=4) - what the admin_centre role refers to is a government seat, and in some rare situations there may be more than one - we define a "capital" role in administrative boundary relations for those rare cases where capital and government seat are different cities
I simply don't like the idea of duplicate redundandant tags for the sake of there renderer, when the only argument in favour of it so far seems to be less effort to calculate it. Especially when looking for a long term solution and considering how different this is in different countries with all the exceptions. Not to mention that OpenStreetMap is a database in the first place.
