Why doesn't SMPS controller VCC capacitor get fully charged to 310 V?

Most SMPS circuits have a startup circuit like the one in the schematic below: The rectified 310 V goes through Rstartup1 and Rstartup2 to fill Cvcc to UVLO limit and the controller IC starts working....

How do medical SMPS achieve lower Earth leakage compared to "regular" AC-DC SMPS?

When using a "regular" (i.e. not medical grade) AC-DC isolated SMPS in the following fashion, a strong mains common-mode voltage is created on the DC side due to - I believe - the stray ...
