Why should you? Think of it this way. If you wound the primary with wire
of twice the cross-sectional area, there'd be mo problem, right. Now
split that wire into 2 separate strands, conenctinf them together all
along their length. It's the same thing (the shape of the wire doesn't
matter). Now, since corresponding points on the 2 stands have the same
voltage on them (at least to a very good approximation), you can remove
the connections without affecting anything, just leaving them joined at
the ends. You've now got 2 separate coils in parallel.

Again, is there a reason no to?
Just wondering if I would run afoul of core saturation.
