Generally, if I felt I needed two, I would make a starter. There are times where I use two packs of lager yeast, plus make a starter on top of it to get to the cell count I want.
If I did not want to make a starter and was brewing a beer that was 1.055-1.070.... I would definitely pitch a couple packs for sure.
Maybe if they were getting old, I might use both at once.
Generally though, if you think you need 2 packs, what you probably need is a starter.
But, look at the calculator from brewers friend, to hit the pro pitch rate for even a 1.058 ale, you come up short by almost a whole packet worth. Is this not reliable? Not trying to argue, just better understand.
