Human beings are designed with great redundancy. We have two eyes so that if one is damaged, we still have the ability to see. We have two arms so that we can still function if one is incapacitated. And yet, we only have one set of reproductive organs. Surely this is the part of the body which is most intrinsic to our survival as a species, so why not two each? Or 4?

With no comment on your specific 3 AM musings, wouldn't a second heart be the most important back-up.
I'm afraid I would beg to differ. Women have two ovaries and men have two testicals. I'd say that's redundant. But that's just me.
