I do not want you to know anything about Bacula source code when I asked
about functionality description. It is a pure architecture description
which developers could implement.

Well, I do not want to dive deeper into discussion how rocket science or
not it is...

This is the exact discussion I could make.
What is better - two distinct SD which do not know anything about each
other and FD just sends two concurrent data streams to both (or any
multiple number of SD when we implement chunking or erasure code) or
special kind of SD which handles redundancy internally syncing data to
other SD synchronously.

And by default lower the backup speed twice.

So, why not to design a special kind of SD which will get data from FD and
then save it on different backend SD synchronously defining full and
flexible RAIT or EC solution?

This is a kind of help I want to get from community as you always complain
about decisions which developers take himself.
