'CAA allows EASA AMEL holder to certify UK registered aircraft's for 2 years but no reciprocal action from EU yet.'
Correct. At least that is what they are saying at present. Maybe we will find out later today!

'CAA does not allow duo AMELs.'
The CAA state you will be able to hold an a 'new' type of UK licence alongside an EASA part 66 licence from an existing member state i.e. non-UK as these will no longer be recognised by EASA after 29th March.
This would entitle you to continue to certify UK registered aircraft after 29th March as well as EASA registered aircraft.


'Is it worthwhile to transfer?'
Will the EU issue a reciprocal agreement? I think they may have to but it is not yet decided. As things stand right now - you could lose the right to after 29th March.

Hopefully we will get a decent pay rise and demand from non EU countries
Nobody knows what the 'new' CAA licence criteria will be yet. It may lead to organisations in the UK driving down salaries as they won't require certifiers to hold an EASA licence.

Please keep me updated as I have hard time with France QA and DGAC who make their own rules.
Good Luck with that! Maybe they will be the next to leave the EU?
