NO question that dual systems are safer than single systems. However, I have driven single master systems all my life and never had an issue, and many of them were in unrestored condition. A dual system with total loss of front braking is better than no brakes, but not much better than a single system with the same failure and mechanical emergency rear brakes. I would not be afraid of a properly restored single master system with emergency braking on both rear wheels.
