The why is not related to the fact that 2 forms should not have the same ID but I'll clarify.
I'm creating a web site. On the top right corner there will be a login box. This login box allows loin via ajax from and always sits the no matter what the website displays. When the user logs in it says "Hello USER" instead of the login box. You can see it in may web sites on the web. Now the can ask to reset his password in which case the website now shows 2 forms: 1. the one on the top right corner. login form. 2. in the middle of the screen a form to send the user name of the user who forgot his password. regular POST form. Both forms go to the same controller "Users" one to login and the other to reset the password. You may say that when the reset password form appears the login box should not, but I think its not that important and certainly not bad design case. Now that we have this covered. ----------------- Back to 2 forms with he same ID?
