As I said I'm old and not up to date on these drives lol. There may be a really easy reason why you need them seperate that I'm missing

The biggest reason is it gives us some flexibility to try various other things later. This is just a prototype and will be our test bed for all things related to this drive. It isn't a huge difference to go with 2 or 4, and there are ups and downs for both.
