People can also wear gloves and use two weapons at once, but we can’t do that mechanically for balance reasons. There’s plenty of ways to justify this specific mechanical interaction. Having the balance of a stance to strike with your primary fist, etc.

If you do want to argue logical semantics, as Raigen said, it’s strange how it’s more efficient to use two bows as opposed to having just one.

To add as well, a lot (not all) of the split/alternate scaling weapons are considered good because they lack the strength tax. This change wouldn’t make any of the pure strength axes/swords/spears better or worse, while making non-axe/sword/spear strength-scaling weapons more efficient. The split scaling sword/axe/spears would be the nerf of this change, and they already have the advantage of having more stat points to spend around due to not using strength.
