what is the intent of art 517.18 (A)

moreover the blueprint calls for 2 e-power recep at the bed location 43" AFF this is above the headboard and the second recep at 18" AFF for the bed to plug into.

is the intent to have two receps available for everyday use?
or is it just as it says two branch circuits, practicle or not?

what say you guys?
thanks as always,
