I think you have missed my point. What I am advocating is to take one channel from the receiver and feed its output direct to one servo (assuming two servos are used on ONE flight control surface). Using a Y-lead the second servo is connected to the same receiver channel via the Matchbox which is adjusted to exactly match the directly fed servo. So, if the Matchbox should fail then you have lost only one servo and not both which would be the case if BOTH servos were routed via the Matchbox.

Your second explanation is much clearer.
