Actually, it does.
S92s 225s Merlins ec135 a109s all have multi engine related accidents often
Merlin isn't a twin, nor is the CH-53E.
The S92 crash in Canada (Cougar) was not due to the input gears failing from the two engines, but output from the bevel to the TTO -- whether you had one or two engines driving the gear box has nothing to do with the box running out of oil and then failure of drive to the tail rotor.
Can you offer an example of an S92 accident that actually has to do with two engines?
AnFI, if all you have is a hammer, does everything really look like a nail?
The 225 has a particular design issue that will or won't be addressed successfully enough to return that fleet to service. Can't be a rush job, that would probably defeat the purpose.
