MSD & Ballast Resistor Question

I have had my Ballast Resistor in-line with my MSD box since I installed it 4 years ago. A friend of my has (had) the same configuration and his MSD box started to miss fire. At first he did not know it was the box until he replaced all the spark plugs, wires, installed a new MSD distributor and finally the box… He contacted MSD to ask them what may have caused it to miss fire because normally the boxes tend to just die. MSD ask him if he had taken the Ballast Resistor out of line and told him they can cause this issue. Has anyone ever heard of this?
