I haven't been part of this convo, but thought I'd offer a point of view on this question.  I've always thought two point guards are better than one.  Is there any reason that you wouldn't want two people on the floor who can set up the offense and who are very good ball-handlers?  A couple of things that make it work better:  They can't both be pass-first -- one of them has to hunt shots.  It helps if one of them is a good rebounder, or at least hunts rebounds, that way the break is set up sooner.

If you have an exceptional passing big (Gabbie or Stefanie), it's like having a second exceptional passer but not a second ball-handler.

Sue and Diana (and Maria and Diana) are shining examples, as has been brought up in this thread.  Cazorla and Ionescu is a recent example that worked out pretty well, as is Vandersloot and Ionescu.

My own analogy:  Does it bother anyone when a band has two lead guitar players?  No other band has done it as well as the Allman's with Duane and Dickey, but that worked so well that it was almost a given in Southern Rock bands for some time after that.
