Yes, it is Intended to be a safety of flight issue.
You have dual independent engines. And the manufacturer would like to keep it that way.
The 12volt batteries are required to keep the Fuel pumps running in the event of a Generator failure.
Once the battery becomes depleted, the Fuel Pumps will stop and so will the engine.
The batteries are not sized for starting the engine, they are sized to run the Fuel pumps for at least 30 minutes without the assist of a generator.
So in the highly unlikely event of a dual generator failure, you would need a battery large enough to power the fuel pumps of BOTH engines for 30 minutes it might take for you to get on the ground.
One battery could be used to power both engines and in the event of one engine failing the other engines generator would keep it going.
That single battery would probably need to be twice the Capacity of the current batteries to maintain your 30-minute reserve.
Connecting BOTH generators to a single battery is DOABLE.
Whether it is ADVISABLE is up to you.
If it is EXPERIMENTALLY Certified, it is your call.

Everyone trying to redesign his fuel system needs to remember...
These are 914 TURBO Engines.
Each has 2 electric fuel pumps and Zero Mechanical pumps.
The fuel pressure needs to be 5 psi ABOVE the 5psi (40" Boost) pressure.
The Fuel pumps need to be able to deliver 10psi on takeoff.
The Fuel pumps, as installed, deliver 15psi and are regulated down to 5-10 as required.
15-20 psi mechanical pumps that fit the 914 engine are going to be hard to come by.
