One can argue the merits of the design with regards to it's reliability.
Any modern car contains similar components, not being packaged together make piecemeal replacement seem cheaper.
This design contributes to the performance and economy of these motors.
I've changed lots of plug wires in my day and none were as simple as changing the DIC.
Generally the Red T5 DIC on your 99 should be good for ~100K miles.
Helps to keep the plugs refreshed and properly gapped.
Having a spare on hand alleviates the worry.
9-3SS has an arrangement of individual coils of some sort so the all-at-once failure doesn't seem as likely.
