The short story is squish will cause turbulence and push the much better
mixed fuel into the center of the ball in a very compact volume with no
stray bits here and there. The smaller the area the less need for a lot of
advance and the lower octane requirement. FIW a dished piston with a very
small chamber is the best for making power it has been documented more than
once. Like a diesel..
