The list of possible reasons could be quite lengthy. Here are some.
Studio 66 simply want the best of both worlds. They want a multiple presenter channel as that concept works well for them, but they also want to appeal to those viewers who are more likely to call a single presenter channel. Why does News Corporation own both The Sun and The Times newspapers?
The optimum strategy for a channel high on the EPG might be considered to be quite different to that for a lowly placed channel. What's considered to work best on Sky 941 might not be considered the best move for Sky 912. In fact 941 is not only lowly it's almost at the very bottom of the EPG, so needs a very different approach.
They might want to establish different brands. After all, isn't Sky 912 now branded as S66 and only Sky 941 is Studio 66? Many companies market similar products with different looks in order to expand their reach. Not only that, if at any point a brand starts to lose popularity, the other brand helps to hold their market share.

i would like to see you proof that it works so well for them or is what you say simple conjecture to back your point,
i find it interesting that you say in a earlier post they they got the idea from XF yet you told me in many posts over and over that 66 had on access to XF's figures so how could they know it worked so well for them ?
i would argue that it was simply born out of necessity not having planed for the long term when they took sins money, and not thought how going down to 2 channels would effect them,

i would agree that its a know fact that channels at the bottom end of the EPG get a lot less viewers but this should not be used as a reason not to try with the show, multi girl channels get less callers when they charge top end prices fact so by using 2 girls on a channel they are making they viewer/caller ship smaller they it should be,

i would say they would be better off trying to create 1 strong brand they everyone knew what it was about and what they would get which they had done well when they where elite,
as a strong brand would help drive callers/viewers down to 941 which would only help them, if they what to make 941 the sun then they need to reduce the cost of the call and go the xp route but as they are not making that much money at the moment i dont see this as a option
currently walking on the Sunny side of the street

No this isn't the case,
Sky channel 912 is called/branded "Studio 66"
Sky channel 940 is called/branded "Studio 66 2".
Sky Channel 941 is called/branded "Studio 66 3"
