I'm happy with my dual set-up. The only improvement would be one-finger power, but I can't see that anything would do that because two brakes are hard to pull with one finger. And 2 x disc brakes would be more than 2x as expensive because I'd want to build up a DMR/Surly/Hope hub. Cheap 2nd hand front wheel would be doable.
Hydraulic means a through-the-fork routing wouldn't cause excess friction and would practically iradicate broken cable problems. Hopefully. I'd take a v-brake and lever to tournaments just in case though...
I see your point, I still have the fear from my last endo experience!
Through the stem and steerer routing would be very tidy (and protective).
