I would rather pull the neutralsFrom what you describe, it sounds like the inverter wants to isolate the output Neutral from the input neutral when in inverter mode. That tells me you should *not* tie the neutral of the two panels together.
Yup, a real pain in the butt!!!
Warning: The following may not be to code..... but it could make things easier.
Would it be possible to mount a 2nd isolated neutral bus bar in the main panel and run a single large Neutral to it from the critical Loads panel? Then your critical loads neutrals can tie to it.
