A 60 cm frame made of 8/5/8 for a rider at or slightly above 200 lb who
isn't carrying a huge load doesn't need a 2nd tt. Neither does a 58.5
cm frame for that same rider and that same load made out of 7/5/7 with
an 8/5/8 downtube doesn't need a 2nd tt either.

I think that the double tt is largely aesthetic; a 55 or 58 bicycle
for a rider not much more than 200 lb, who rides like most North
Americans (ie, doesn't carry 200 lb loads of paraffin tins, firewood,
fodder, or relatives) doesn't need a 2nd tt for reasons of strength;
after all, Rivendell frames are very well made.
