requested on the following system: Twin battery, alternator and bus system. Basically two complete and separate systems, with a cross tie relay to power either system in the event of an alternator failing. Electrically dependent fuel system.

There are three fuse blocks. I could use one fuse block for the two fuel pumps, utilizing diodes from each alternator system. Alternatively, I could simply fuse one pump to each alternator system.

Keep it simple, or use the fuse block as an essential buss? And why, if you please.

If that one feed for that one fuse block the runs both fuel pumps fails, glider. many ways to skin cats. I did three fuse blocks also, one complete fuel pump, computer and IGN on one fuse block, and the other on another fuse block, both are backup through a back up battery with manual 30A. switch with that feed coming through a separate firewall penetration. in any case, I am always scanning for a place to land power out ;-)
