Question re 28 VDC from battery

28 Vdc for the igniters comes off the hot battery bus
So if 4 gens get bricked due to timer- then the AP must be started via battery, which also powers igniter - and then APU can keep the igniter and battery charged and ?? going.

Even so - IMO the timer shutoff of GENs although unlikely is still a dumb idea.

And it takes x months to correct ??
