Why?  Because two radios changes the amount of listening time
available.  With one radio, you are transmitting roughly half the time
and listening half the time.  With two radios you are able to listen
100% of the time, and on multiple bands if you like.

It is more than just a technicality.  It is a fundamental shift in the
nature of contesting itself and deserves its own category, just like
LP and HP.
