The EFI myth

I think it depends on what your talents and experiences are. For me, I did not want to try to jet carbs to adjust for altitude changes or even original tunes. No idea on how to begin doing that. Computers and programs are more my thing. I can input the requested parameters and look at datalogs and see if my settings are good. Now if you were to ask me what a carbureted engine "likes " for jetting or timing or anything else, I would not know what it likes. I don't understand, acceleration pumps, primaries, secondaries or cfm for ci.

So, we may be able to make a carb and choke reliable but without an O2 sensor and logging, how can you tell if you are efficient? just because it runs?
That is not what I am after. Quick question. How many new cars are made with carbs today? That is because most people do not know how to adjust them and EFI just works..... until it doesn't. But while it does, they are more efficient at reducing emissions and increasing fuel economy since the average garage mechanic never touches them. With a carb, people mess with them until they start. Albeit, not very well. If that is the only criteria, then carbs and chokes are more reliable.
