"anything less is a waste of time"

In my opinion (and experience) that's an unfounded overstatement.

If the symptoms point to a stuck plunger due to stale fuel, it's relatively easy to get the plunger freed up once the distributor is out in the light of day. The labor (and time) is in the removal and re-installation.
