Think of it this way. Without sword skills, Dual Wielding isn't better, it's just different. The same as choosing to wield an axe or a sword or a mace. It otherwise offers the exact same benefits as dual wielding in real life. Which is to say, very little for a lot of effort.

Dual wielding gave Kirito the edge because Eugene wasn't expecting it and didn't have time to figure out how to defend against it. Had Kirito been dual wielding from the start, Eugene would've probably been able to adjust his fighting style accordingly.
