    Aha! If the condenser shorts or leaks, the current in the primary coil circuit is not interrupted (as if the points had never opened). Hence, no collapse of the primary coil magnetic field, no jump in the primary or secondary voltage and no induction shock. Plus, intermittent or incomplete shorting allows for erratic and unpredictable performance. Makes perfect sense. Thank you.

    EXACTLY!!
