The fact that it is smaller than what you might be used to seeing is perhaps beside the point. Look at a “coil-on-plug” system that many use, today. You probably have that in your Honda, the coil is about the size of a Walnut and it seems to work just fine.
Size doesn’t always matter. Look at Napoleon…..
The difference is in the duty cycle. Coil on plug in full sequential mode is 25% of the duty of a regular dizzy/coil arrangement.
They could in reality run cooler because they fire less often. Coil on plug also can run more dwell time(charge longer) at all speeds(especially high rpm).
