I don't know any reason why anyone would suggest that a 009 would tend to wear 
out points or condensors any faster than any other distributor. That would be a 
ridiculous claim.

OTOH, I believe the claim is that, in spite of its, reputation, the 009 does 
not deliver the engine performance that we would hope for in a distributor with 
a good advance curve.
