With a twin you get more options with more options come more choices with
more choices the option to make the wrong choice!!!
Out of the 14 different piston twin aircraft I have flown, 95% of them will take you directly to the scene of the crash with an engine failure just after rotation, and thats without the element of surprise added in.

In the majority of cases it may well be the best option to reduce the thrust on the live engine and land ahead under control.
