Rack servers have two PSUs because enterprise buyers are gullible and will buy anything. Generally what happens in case of a single PSU failure is the other PSU also fails or it asserts PROCHOT which means instead of a clean hard down server you have a slow server derping along at 400MHz which is worse in every possible way.
