It is amazing to me that they aren't commonly available!

Not even close. This was a small (a little larger than a postage
stamp), simple device. I remember using one on a 5 HP motor that
wouldn't start. It was for a bakery mixing machine.
Thermistor across the start cap?
Already suggested - he seems to be ignoring it.
Murata make a range of motor start thermistors (posistor).
By the look of the picture on the front of the catalogue they may be
plug in replacements for existing start winding solenoids.
Back in my youth I went to school for HVAC and got a job with a family
owned company who installed Trane. I can remember installing hard start
kits. But my specialty was gas fired ammonia systems. Quite a few
residential and small office units around. Mostly 5 ton. Hell natural gas
was cheap back then. Our local gas company went on strike and I was
working on those things 24 hours a day it seemed. So freon-based systems
were not part of my routine except for the then emerging residential heat
pump units. But I do remember the solid state hard start kits.
I think this Villa dood is somewhat purposefully dense.

There is no starting cap...it would take the place of a centrifugal
opening starting switch.
I'll Google posistor and see where that leads.

Never got into actual motor repair except for taking apart 10/15 horse
230 volt single phase repulsion/induction motors, then having the rotor/
stator rewound, the com resurfaced or replaced. Other than that was a
simple plugin solid state replacement for a three pin residential AC
compressor. There were direct replacements or hard start replacements to
give the compressor a month or so longer useful life while the owner
scraped up the cash for a replacement.

Yeah I mistyped PLC for PTC a couple replies ago.

Still that doesn't replace a centrifugal clutch directly although you
could probably jury-rig one.
