How often do you have to deal with the points?

Every vehicle I own with the exception of the Ford trucks has points. I never have to deal with them. The Cadillac has been my primary vehicle for 21 years. I think I've installed 3 sets of points in it during that time.

The Galaxie 500 has had the same set of points since 2011 and many thousands of miles.

Old technology doesn't necessarily mean bad technology.
