Default Accelerator pedal return springs

The recent Kirkham crash due to a stuck throttle made me wonder, how many of us are running dual carb return springs or a carb return spring and an accelerator pedal return spring?

It looks like the originals ran them (or at least some of them). I know that my pedal was drilled for it, but it wasn't installed (which I am correcting). Here are two pics of CSX3021 (courtesy of Mickmate) showing them installed. (Mickmate also has the tab washer and spring if anyone wants it).
