I'm sure Honda did every thing they could to prevent damage, by lazy people leaving the non running generator connected
But they say to disconnect, if you are lazy and something goes wrong, they can say we told you so
You have to go outside to start them or turn them off
What is the big deal about following directions, connecting them or disconnecting them ?
Your not saving any significant time or being significantly delayed
By being contrary and lazy and having it your way
Not trying to be rude, but what else can you call it, besides contrary and lazy
Might understand if it was (2) larger generators with wireless remote start and shut down, saves a trip outside, even then best to flow the Mfg instructions
But not with two manual start generators,
Really no excuse for not following Mfg instructions
Even when alternating between generators
