Go up in a small GA single engine. Turn the radios off. Turn the
alternator off. Turn the Master off. Turn one magneto off. Note that the engine keeps running. THAT's why they use magnetos. I do agree that electronic ignition would be a good idea. The one's I have seen revert to a mechanical system if electrical is lost. But you cannot handprop them. And they add complexity and weight. There are tradeoffs.
