Default Benefit of dual shock springs

What are the benefits of dual spring shocks? Is there an advantage over single spring shocks or is it preferance like 50/50 or droop?

With multiple springs you have the ability to mix/match springs for different rates and fine tuning. So lets say you go soft then med on springs. The first half of your spring resisitance will be nice and soft, but as it compresses more you get into a bit more resistance. This allows you to have the best of both worlds whene it comes to having a nice soft suspension on the small end, but then not all the excess twistyness of having a soft suspension when you start to get crossed up because the harder springs are kicking in keeping it from just going into a knot.

i really like the venom creeper shocks.... the larger springs could be a bit harder tho.
but i took the internals out just to see how it works, and it twists so bad on climbs. they really are sweet!
