What he said.

And I'll just add that when you have two independent sets of books,
sooner or later they're going to fall out of sync through human error,
and then you'll have a bigger mess.

Indeed. Plus the asker didn't copy in the list but replied to me directly asking "Why not?"

I replied with:

Because the Church is one entity and it owns both accounts?

Because GnuCash is designed to handle multiple Asset accounts?

Because opening 2 instances is more complicated than opening just one?

Because a transfer from one account to the other would be easier in the same instance?
