It's not zero maintenance, you still have rubbing block wear. But I see your point (get that pun). I actually trigger my Holley Dominator ECU with points (with factory distributor) although I use the computer for full electronic timing curve control as I have locked out both mech and vacuum advance. I did it temporarily for a first start, but then after dynoing the setup it proved to work perfectly and my laziness kept it. You need to check the point gap, the rubbing block still wears and when it does your timing changes.

Lots of benefits and no draw backs.
