It is not that a Hall effect electronic ignition system is sensitive to shaft 
or bushing wear BUT that the specific design of the Petronix Ignitor is. 

For example the Lumenition Magnetronic Hall Effect system is designed such 
that it isn't sensitive to distributer shaft or bushing wear.  This is 
achieved by mounting the pickup horizontally rather than vertically.

    Interesting. I just read a comparison (published by Moss Distributing in a
 recent flyer) between Crane/Allison optical and Pertronix Hall effect
 ignition upgrades. There are many Benefits v. Drawbacks, but pertinant to
 this discussion is :  Crane "Benefits... not sensitive to shaft or bushing
 wear"   Pertronix "... Drawbacks... Air gap is critical, badly worn shaft
 and bushings can be a problem." >>
