[Healeys] Facet Pump in Series

[BJ8Healeys]

I plumbed my two fuel pumps in series because the connections are simple.
All that was required was rubber hoses and hose clamps, no special fittings.
In more than 15 years, I have had some temporary and one permanent failure
of the (SU) pump but none involving clogging of the fuel lines or pumps.
I also have a switch under the dash to select either pump, or both off.

OK, I'm confused. (Not unusual!)

What is the benefit in running the fuel pumps in a series?

On my BJ8 I run 2 facets, in parallel, so that if one pump fails I just flip
a switch under the dash and continue on the other pump.
