Probably just a preference, my '41 has both pumps, the electric is on a spring loaded toggle, I hold it on for a few seconds until I hear the sound of the electric pump change then the car starts right up. The only disadvantage of my setup is if the mechanical pump fails I'd have to hold the switch on to get home.
