So with a clever pilot who knows what he is doing we are equal on takeoff and I am ahead of you on all other parts of the flight with my 2
Well, that assumes all other things being equal. But they're not. For starters the direct operating costs of a twin are roughly two to three times higher than a single of comparable performance. So if you're flying to an annual budget (like most of us on here) you can do two to three times the hours if you choose singles over twins. More if you go for full ownership and will solely be responsible for the annual fixed costs too.
So either you fly a plane that requires a lot of currency, in a not-so-current state, or you fly a plane that requires less currency, in a very-current state.
What does that do to your ability to deal with emergencies in general? (And remember an engine failure is not the only possible emergency in an aircraft. Emergencies like fuel exhaustion/starvation or CFIT really don't care about the number of engines you are bringing.)
