I would say that you are NOT all wet with
your ideas ... but you are using circuitry that
was not even dreamed of in 1957 or 1945 !!
Nothing wrong with that, except for the
folks who are trying to keep accurate nostalgia.
What makes your idea practical is the fact
that you are 'over driving' the current at first,
which makes it rise fast, and then cutting it off.
Also, the idea of dropping the current is along
the lines of the holding selector magnet ... the
cam pushed the armature against the magnet
mechanically, thus not requiring as much FAST
build up of current ... once pushed, almost any
current can hold it against the magnet.
