The damage on a weapon you give to a summoned (or charmed) pet is irrelevant unless the damage is more than half of the max hit that thing would do normally.

But his damage as a fresh summon is determined by his level/spell level, not his visible weapon or whatever. And if you gave him a 1-damage weapon, it wouldn't lower his max hits, either.
Your counter-argument doesn't hold water, because pets don't work by the same rules as PCs. A PC also won't be dual wielding if you give him a book or lantern for his offhand, but a pet does. Besides, some PCs can bash without a shield. Etc. It doesn't follow that because most (but not all) PCs need a shield to bash, then something that is not a PC needs a shield to bash.

To expand on this, your pet will ONLY dual wield innately at a certain level (spell level 39 maybe?). This might even be just for the highest summon within that spell range. I believe the lowest summon of your 44 spell level animation will not dual wield innately as well.
Your pet is a warrior. Once it’s high enough to be able to kick and bash it will do so no matter what you equip it with.
