unless I am wrong I think you worry that extra capacitance would contribute to burning the points faster …
yet as I understand the concept and describded in mr. Mohats article, the extra capacitance would actually increase the protection and keep the points from arching by absorbing the EMF kickback when the primary current collapses at the openning of the points.
the only drawback being a weaker … but still acceptable spark on the plugs ( see article on choosing a capacitor)
Conversely as smaller (below .22uf) would cause MORE points burn up (by absorbing less of the EMF kickack and allowing it to “jumping across the points” which is what we do not neeed).
