Well, I agree with what I "think" you are saying. The magnetic attraction could be enough to drag the mag plate slightly, even though the magnets are not rubbing on the coils, especially if the bushing is loose/sloppy.
You replaced one of the coils, was it on the cylinder that is misbehaving? Did you remove the other coil to ensure its case isn’t cracked/burned through on the bottom where you can’t see it.
Your mag plate has some vertical slop, how about "sideways" slop? Excessive sideways slop could cause erratic point gap settings which could result in a miss.
And yes, for me, it is always best to just start again at the beginning when I get confused, I usually find a mistake/incorrect assumption I have made/overlooked.
