If you are on an EP, you were right to file using the PTS scheme if your wife's income is too low for purposes of showing the ability of support you if your EP get canceled. Additionally, if her income is low you would have a lower chance of getting the LTVP as well.
As you say, her details will be in both of the applications, but using the Family Ties route means she needs to be able to show she can support you without a job (and any sprogs that just might happen along the way). Whereas using the EP route, already your income is high enough to show the ability to support her so getting it on your own merits is much better but either way you are still looking in excess of two years before you have a decent chance of gaining PR. Now the only issue I see aside from your personal reasons, is the hope that you can keep your EP that long. Hopefully that isn't one of the reasons for trying to rush the issue!
Two applications? NO. definitely not.
