The other thing that will happen is that you are carrying around an "unecessary" second engine that will substantially reduce your useful payload, when compared with the single engine version of the type. The single engine version of different airframes is often an overall better bet - except that the mission will sometimes dictate you must have a twin especially if your regulator is obssessed with engine failure.
