All that's usually happening is the extra air/gas in the cylinder makes it harder for the arc to jump the gap.
The pixies get sent to the plug but can't make the jump.
Thus the recommendation to make the gap smaller.

Can confirm. What is commonly called "spark blow out" is not blow out at all.
It is extremely noticeable when it happens though. You know once you've experienced it. If it's bad enough to cause all cylinders to misfire on full boost then it will feel like you just slammed on the brakes mid pull haha definitely scary the first time it happens to you
