I have a main drain two actually and a skimmer but if i had to do it again i would not cut the liner there's no reason to use the trench you just dug for the pipe but over size it and let the fabric and liner and fabric fall into the trench put your plumbing in the pond and then burry it with rock small larger or even just fabric . there's no point in having a penetration' at the bottom run the pipe in the trench but inside the liner then maybe toward the top I'd make a penetration ' somewhere where it is easy to do a repair if the seam ever failed.
definitely; I rest easy knowing ALL my plumbing is inside the liner now. I don't worry about cutting into it nor any leaks due to pump or piping.

i SHOULD Add in most areas from what i am told two drains need to be on the same line so no one could ever get held under by the suction . if some one blocks one drain by siting on the drain that the second drain will allow the water to be drawn away from the one being blocked . make sure to check with codes ion your area
