Comment on Would having two hearts be better or worse for the human body?

The proverbial “two hearts in one chest” indicate a split mind, and create much pain.
It won’t do no good. The two would work against each other.
Not only in the holistic meaning, also from a strictly materialistical / technical point of view, there is no way to make them work synchronized. It is the very nature of the heart to determine it’s own rhythm.

And even a singular heart can have some weirdness when it’s own timing signals find alternate paths, like in some arrythmias.
I can only imagine the chaos of trying to keep signals synchronized between two hearts.
