The point is that it doesn't matter when you turn the gen off when charging with a 3-stage converter. You can go on a hike during that time. It's just more efficient to turn the gen off when boost is finished. On the other hand, if you got a dumb power supply that outputs 14.8V, then you better keep an eye on the amp meter. You can easily destroy your batteries if you're not careful.
It's a difference of plug & play, or plug & watch, watch ...
Go ahead and be a slave to your batteries. I got better things to do.
In my case, I babysit my generator, so it doesn't grow legs and walk off. Only outside when it's running.
