why not cubing in both positions?

This is a double with the 1-point anchor. To me i do not see the difference to the next positions because we will still lose our market if we roll a 6. I added the two checkers on 13 (from 8 and 7)to give more time if we do not roll a six this roll.

With the 2-point anchor XG will not double. But Are we not losing our market with all sixes? Has anyone with the knowledge time to explain I would be grateful.
