Twice the chance of failure and twice the weight & complexity. The synthetic oil in the engine system is not ideal but it is lots better than the transmission fluid which the C6 planetary gears normally get. And, if the engine oil system fails, you have more important things to worry about than the gear drive not getting oil : ) There are a lot of other factors but short of time to go into them.
