I take it that you've never had an ignition control module go bad. They don't last anywhere near the life of the vehicle. If you've looked under the hood of the newer cars you'll see most have engine covers to hide the nightmare lurking underneath.
Ignition control module, they haven't used them in 30 years. Engine covers and there to dampen upper engine noise, newer high pressure fuel injectors are noisy. You can't discuss 30 year old technology with current, it just isn't an apples to apples comparison.
