Is there any reason to consider using dual purpose or a one starting,

No problem - my Yanmar 2gm20's start almost instantly, and there's no
pre-heater, so the load is modest (80 Amps?) and the total drain is
minimal. However, I took the opportunity to replace my starter deep
cycles with zero hassle AGM cranking batteries.
