If you shut down both engines over the atlantic, you're in for a dive : can the manufacturer prevent the pilot from shutting down the engines? They wouldn't be able to manage an engine fire..
Do not underestimate engineers .Impossible is not in their vocabulary.
To take your example why would anybody shut down all its engines at the same time in cruise ? Fire? yes but the alarm could be coupled to a swithch enabling that , , etc,, EGWPS could be coupled to the auto pilot , like in the new Airbii with the TCAS RAs, etc.. etc..
Not desirable yes, but impossible ?
