The Dual-Master cylinder setup is not just there for marketing reasons, it's a DOT (Department of Transportation) mandated safety item. I figure the year that went into affect. 1968? somewhere around there.

If is the same reason that commerical airplanes are required to have redundant backup hydraulic and electrical systems.
