That is a valid point. Using twin thinner wires instead of one fat wire has that risk. Now it is down to your fuse(s) EG with a spec for a 300a fuse on the fat wire, you could go with two thinner wires to the 300a fuse or have a 150a fuse on each wire to the pos battery post.
In the latter case the 150a fuse on the one thinner wire now taking 300a would save the day.
