I have just read through a good portion of this post, and let me tell you IT IS FUCKING EXCELLENT. Pat yourself on the back for so thoroughly and clearly explaining the above. Oh, and if you don't mind I will be referencing this post from time to time in explanations of fuel systems, ignition systems, etc.
I, for one, feel smarter having read through it - I'm going to check and see if my IQ has measurably increased.
