If there was a need to determine how many decoupling capacitors could be removed with the use of embedded distributed capacitance, the typical route was to fully assemble the embedded capacitance board and start removing capacitors until you were happy with the performance and the number of caps removed.

The power supply does not run the microprocessor; the decoupling capacitors do, and the power supply is just a battery charger for the capacitors.

The most important integrated passive R&D projects:a top five list

The designer needs to determine the number and location of decoupling capacitors and the goal is to save component cost and board area by avoiding over-conservative (excessive) use of bypass capacitors.
