I think it mainly gives you a more reliable termination. Terminators are always "leaky" to some extent. Putting two in a row guarantees you won't get read-through into the next gene downstream, which could cause all sorts of crosstalk in whatever genetic circuit you're designing.

--Hi,I saw that IGEM uses a double terminator sometimes. Does that give you better protein expression?
