Dual Purpose

I have the chance to start training one of my GSD as a cadver dog. One is currently airscent/Trailing the other strictly trailing (very new at it).
Two questions I'm sure some one will ask are.

1. Why not train a dog to do both- I'm not so sure that wouldn't create problems. But if challenged I wouldn't have a good answer, other than cause I don't want to lol. Any one have thoughts on this.. pro's con's?

2. Why not use the more experience dog.. I'm thinking of starting the less experienced one... Any thoughts from pass experiences on this?
