In reply to Simon Wwwwww:
I normally find a long draw and a short draw work just fine. That half inch of slack, will it really matter? You are lowering off, or top roping the second up. There is no high fall factor to be had to generate larger forces. If you're multi pitch leading off a crap belay, then this should have been in the thought process before building the crap belay where it is. Yes, I can think of situations where you could argue it'd arise. But if you're in such situations I'd also argue you're unlikely to find a double bolt belay and still complain.
If its a sport route, and the anchors or rock fails, you have bigger problems to worry about than half inch of all but theoretical slack in an otherwise dynamic world where gravity is king. So relax a little.
If there is still a runner in, then the belay failing isnt so fatal, just a little scary.
If there is no runner in and the belay is that bad, then best hope for a sudden abundance of skills and once out of the mire, question how you got into that fix and make sure you dont mess up again.
