No pros I can think of, and plenty of cons. Leave that stuff to the trained professionals (or amateurs). The main problem with add-ons or extensions is that real tandems will use larger diameter, stronger, tubing in every place that matters, while the add-on will use standard diameter, single bicycle tubing. If you want a tandem, buy one. It's really that simple.

I am beginning to build a fat bike version of an adult trail a bike. I am pursuing this due to the cost of a standard tandem Fatbike as well as my concern that the weight of my tandem team on two, instead of three, wheels will not give me the floatation over snow that I need to winter ride on the local rail trails.
