For lower voltage, I think that the ideal operating speed of the alternator and the starter are to far appart, starter operates at around 20 times the RPM of the engine speed while the alternator operates at twice the engine speed, the Honda N360 did have a combined generator/starter but when it became the N600 they stopped and went to separate units, most likely because they could then use an alternator instead of a brushed generator.
