I kind of thought that way once. I used a Crane XR-I Electronic Ignition Conversion Kit with built in rev limiter. It worked good and fit in an original distributor, keeping the stock look.
I have since re-evaluated and gone back to points, because they are so dependable and easy to troubleshoot. I now run a dual point setup which extends the service intervals and gives a more stable spark at higher rpm.
