Bats - a brilliant idea

We all know that batsman are stupid ( why else would they whack it straight up in the air?) but I think they are missing the biggest trick ever.
Why bother with adjusting your hands or position to play reverse sweeps etc. - why not just have a bat with two faces ? The technology is there and I can't see anything in The Laws to prevent it.
Sorry to all fellow bowlers.

The Wisden Cricketer did a good gear guide last month and in that was the Gray-Nocolls Dual T20 which I think is double-sided for exactly that.

And apparently some Aussies have used it....
