That’s not the way I would do it, nor did I suggest “removing A/C” from 50A service or generator.

I tried to emphasize “or” option in “Anyway, if you think you’ll be using a 30A pedestal frequently, wouldn’t it be more effective to re-wire one of the two Air Conditioners so it can run off 50A “or” be plugged in directly to the pedestal?”

On second thought, it wouldn’t be much more difficult so that “either” A/C (one or the other) could be powered from 20A separate source, providing even more flexibility.
