Hi George,
There is no reason at all I can think of why the Perlux system is any better than the 75 240 setup. I think that I probably have a perception of it being easier(better) because IPD provided it in a kit form with easy instructions.
Furthermore, I believe that it should not be that difficult to put together a solid state triggering setup for the lower points.
I am not experienced in this, but would ask this: How important is the triggering contacts timing accuracy for the D-jet?
I think that it would make the system more reliable, but cannot see how it would improve performance like improving the accuracy of the main spark plug timing.
Maybe I am missing something.....

Happy new year!
