Being rather fundamentally opposed to change, I do understand your codgering. But, it does seem these systems do work well. I remember when electronic ignitions came out. I was one of those decrying them because I couldn't band-aid them and limp home like I could with a points type ignition. But, they didn't break. I didn't need to limp home, like I did routinely with my points ignition. I simply drove. They worked. Same that e-lec-tronic fuel injection. New fangled, complicated, unreliable, etc. Laments for carburetors abounded, from my lips as well. While I've still many a sick carburetor that doesn't work well, darned if my fuel injected cars don't run superbly every day. Fly by wire in fancy airplanes has been around for decades, and working well. Boeing and Lockheed and others wouldn't use them on those expensive planes and rockets if it didn't. Fact is, the systems just plain work, and work well.
