Multi engines work better.....you can put one engine at higher power and the other at idle or vice verse.
Uhhhhhm.......

Most pilots would have just said, you can add power on the upwind engine to counteract weathervane in a strong cross wind.


Have you ever actually flown an airplane? Because based on your description above you sound like a young kid trying to describe something he doesn't really understand.
