I just remembered my mechanic saying something about bending points leaf to make more pressure, that's likely the source of my issue.
Too much pressure on rubbing block, extra friction, boom, squealing, dry rubbing block.
Which likely wore prematurely, thus closing the points gap and screwing with timing.
You'd think it would take a lot of extra pressure, but maybe not.
