Changing the overall primary inductance changes the primary current.
which could have a sizable effect on the primary gap's behavior and quenching.
Typical primary tap tuning also affects the coupling to the secondary
slightly as well, which can also affect the gap quenching.
Other than that, I agree with your comments regarding Gareth's advice.
