Most probably, the idea was to use the fuel pump as a booster pump for
take-off and landing, and to get gravity-fed free-flow to the carb the
rest of the time.
In theory, you could get free-flow through the Facet, but now, maybe that
flow was insufficient (on Facets, the flow you get depends on at which
point of the cycle the pump stops).
I did have a single Zenith to feed my 2.4 liter VW, and I, too, ended up
bypassing the Facet for that reason.
Just my 2 cents worth.

The KR-2 that I am refurbishing has an interesting rats nest of plumbing
around the fuel pump. Fuel comes from the header tank to the gascolator
then out
to a tee. One line runs to the fuel pump, the other to another tee and on
to
the carb, coming out of the fuel pump the line runs to that tee in the
delivery line to the carb. Basically there is a line from the gascolator
to the
carb with an attached loop line with the fuel pump in it.
Why can't you just go from the gascolator to the fuel pump
to
the carb? The pump is a new Facet and the carb is a Zenith.
