That's true but if you're having constant carburetor troubles it might be worth it to some people not to have to deal with it ever again. Instant cold starts and no possibility of vapor lock sounds pretty good.
If I were doing a complete build with a rebuilt engine, installing something like that might make more sense. I don't think I'd want to pop one onto a well worn 70 year old engine.
