With no offense to mag users, or those who want to or must operate W/O starting Batteries..... Magnetos are OK for hand cranking a tractor if the battery is dead. A distributor has a full range of centrifugal advance. Curved to follow engine performance, the Distributor retards the timing correctly to let tractors idle smoothly and with good response and efficiency at modest throttle settings. A mag has only two settings for timing, one for starting (impulse delay at TDC) and full advance for all running conditions from idle to Wide open. Distributor tractors are substantially smoother at idle. Manufacturers would be using them today if they were better. Jim
