It would be pretty noticeable when viewed side-by-side under controlled viewing conditions - after all that sort of scale of jump is what Piezography have been making a big song & dance about over their new black ink. That said, I think that good paper choice drastically closes the gap & as you said, it's not really about Dmax anyway.
You've nailed the one big thing no one has mentioned about multiple hit printing - the possibility to make one layer warmer & the other colder with different salt mixtures. Or do the same thing with contrast. That is where single-hit printing falls down I'd argue. What Bob's doing with Gum etc is really interesting in this direction.
Yes I did not think about the warmer and colder layers in Pt Pd would indeed create a depth and magic that a single layer could not match. Very good point. When I do duo tone I work with complimentary colours that when combined
create a wonderful contrast that is not available when single printing.
