Agree that they should be counted twice.

I'm also of the opinion that for match play cube errors should be expressed in MWC rather than EMG. That makes it harder to have an overall PR, so I understand why they are not customarily given that way. I also understand the value of using EMG for checker play, since the same error early in the match will cost much less MWC than the same error later in the match.

But for cube play, the cube action is much more closely tied to the match score than for checker play, so looking at how much absolute equity you give up makes more sense to me. But I appear to be in the minority here, and I haven't found a way to tell XG to give EMG for checker play and MWC for cube play.
