Agree that having 2x iBGP sessions per client scales poorer 
than one, but it scales better than a full mesh between 
routers, which is the problem route reflectors solve.

As you rightly point out, YMMV, but from where I'm standing, 
2x iBGP sessions per client to 2x different route reflectors 
is fine for us. It's a reasonable compromise between 
redundancy and administration.
