If you want to wield two weapons of equal size and weight (and other combinations) simultaneously, you need to purchase the TWO-WEAPONS talent.

I have a very hard time seeing the intent that you describe.
You have two explicit examples, Rapier+MG, and Two rapiers.
This explicitly contradicts your intention. And on top of that, they state that the intent is to replicate historical techniques.
In light of that, you could argue that the intent is to allow for all historically correct fencing techniques, be it a dagger, a small buckler, or a cloak in the left hand. But your claim that the intent is one long blade and one short seems very far-fetched to me.
