Dual Cerebellum is powerful for Smarts based skills, and can make a Psionic character pretty powerful. Keep in mind, that with 2 Smarts die, a psionicist is twice as likely to burn his brain by rolling a 1 on his Smarts die. Either die would count for this.
Psionics is what had me thinking of it as I am running a psionist in a traditional fantasy campaign right now.
Now, what you wrote about either die creating the backlash is interesting and not what I would have assumed would happen give it is a "better of rule" (although I did not read the psionics that close - perhaps you mentioned it there). I can see that given there are two brains that did try something. That does balance the effect out. So you could have a 1,1,4 situation where the spell goes off AND there is a critical failure (2 ones with any combo of the dice - or would you rule the 1s have to be a Smarts and Wild die, not the two Smarts dice)? Hmmm, fun is 1,1,1! That would be fun backlash to rule.
