I prefer having front and rear brakes. I ride in all conditions and don't want to have bum knees and ankles when I am much much older. Plus I suck at skidding unless it is an emergency situation in which case my legs somehow know what to do. At the worst having two brakes is a little extra weight and a lot of extra security.
I also like the symmetry since I run TT levers on my bars and only having one would look silly.
