Gary, I would disagree when you said:

As far as points arcing and building up deposits, that is a function of the condenser across them. Too much capacitance and the metal (buildup) will move to one side. Too little capacitance and the metal will move to the other side.

I would say - too little capacitance and sparking will be excessive and burn points rapidly (metal transfer). Too much capacitance and the system will not work properly due to the primary coil magnetic flux collapsing too slowly, thus reducing the magnitude of the induced voltage in the secodary HT winding. With reduced sparking (eventually to zero?) of course. So size of capacitor is a compromise, really.
