I wouldn’t be concerned. I’ve never had that problem even at -40 or colder. Two separate burners each run off it’s own tank will work far better than a two burner run off one tank.
$20 works great

FWIW, I use propane, but since I carry it in my backpack (as opposed to a sled) that may be why I have never had a problem with it, I do not hot tent.

Propane becomes liquid at -44F and will not vaporize. From that point to 0F it does not supply enough pressure for best output. Performance improves as temp goes up.

Unless you have someone feeding the stove 24/7 to keep the tent warm, I think you will have problems with the propane.....

I've been using propane for some time. Ya, it can be finicky in the cold, but as the tent warms, it's a non issue. Cooking in the hot tent

I've only ever used white gas, but I will be going with five others in a hot tent, and some think that a dual burner propane stove would make sense. We are hot tenting, but I am worried about propane freezing. The forecast is for very cold weather. Thoughts?

Also important to remember that as propane vaporizes the canister is significantly cooled.
