From an electrical engineers standpoint of course solid state electronic ignitions are superior in theory and in practical terms AS LONG AS THEY ARE WORKING. I've heard of BOTH good and bad experiences over many many years. If they go south unfortunately you're stuck unlike the old points where you may be able to file them and get back to the shop. The problem I've observed and experienced with conversions is they are obviously NOT up to the par quality and reliability of factory installed modern automobile ignition systems WELL DUH.... I'm still a fan of tractor conversions as so long as they are working they can (subject to switch and coil used etc) deliver more spark energy then the old system and points begin deteriorating from the moment they are first used.
BOTTOM LINE some like them and have had good experience, while others don't like them and had bad experience. To each their own and it would be a boring world if all had the same opinion lol
