I was not devaluing your twin star time..just picking on the modern plane.

Your twin star time is every bit as valuable as Cessna 310, PA44, BE76 time etc.

From a teaching standpoint it does not really teach what it is like to handle a handful of twin such as the 310, older seneca I, or some of the underpowered apaches and a few others when things go wrong.

It is a good plane. Fadec is not something that you get experience in, it just kind of happens. It works based on smoke and mirrors as well as witchcraft and trickery. At least that is what I gathered while I was sleeping during ground at flightsafety.
