Well I'll be damned!
Though someone in the comments of that video mentioned that the dual cuff zip tie (which I didn't know about until now) are much harder to use that method on, and now I'm guessing the other methods I posted may not be as effective against those either. I'm unsure of how common the dual type have been at protests.
Yeah, having 2 locks makes it so you can't apply the pressure to a single failure point.
What makes this technique work is making sure it's tight AND having the lock centrally located so all the pressure bears down on it.
With 2 locks offset like that? Probably wouldn't work. Also probably why they designed it that way.
