I agree about redundancy.
For Sikorsky to put two MGB oil pumps on the A/C and then say if one fails the other will barely get you down is ludicrous. Why even have two pumps if one won't do the job if the other fails? Isn't that the whole purpose of having two? That's like having two engines only so you have some choice as to where you would like to crash.
