The advantage of the monowiper is that it's clearing the water from the windshield in both directions. In a conventional 2-wiper setup, the passenger side dumps water in the driver's line of sight on the up-stroke, then the driver's side wiper clears it to the center/bottom of the windshield (A pretty crappy design when you think about it.)
One of the better 2-wiper designs I've seen is (remarkably) on a Dodge Caravan. The wipers pivot out from the lower corners of the windshield.
Personally, I still prefer the monowiper.
