Interesting point. However, I see it from another angle: ... or maybe not quite, since I take you're advocating for the skulls.
But sseing it from the skull users, I don't think the point is the "unreliability" of the engine.
It is rather that; the sculls won't fail, don't make noise, don't stink, won't cost, and will keep you fit - as a bonus.
To be honest, I'm surprise at the small amount of sailors who prefer engines...

I am always surprised of the amount of French sailors that still depend on skulls. Many diehards still believe an engine is 'unreliable' and will sail or skull (like the junk) fairly large boats into a harbor.
2 sculling spots mid beam may be a good and simple last resort on the smaller Harrys. (It is actually quite fun once you get the hang of it).
