There is the odd one that survived. When I took mine off, only 1 circuit was OK.

My suspicion is that once it fails, you end up with debris in the system which knocks out the other end too.
e.g. it's well known that if you have a clutch master or slave cylinder fail, the other end is likely to fail soon after.
I think Daveperc is still running DRC - he noted a while back that the latest spec cylinders seem to be OK. Personally, once I identified I'd had one circuit lose pressure, I wasn't up for spending multiple thousands to "maybe" fix it, so I went with Koni's on stock springs & H&R ARBs - and all is good.
