The whole point of a dual cell mod is to up the voltage for faster running.

Do not mix batteries of different Ma capacities, you will get worse performance than the lower rated battery because they won't charge properly. On top of this your battery life will be shortened because of the same thing.
There is where you are wrong. To add 2 180mah cells in parallel would boost your run time to like 3 days, maybe some people like that they can run a doggy Bit for an obscene length of time. I personally like to up my voltage rather than run time The poll in itself is goofie because it's personal preferance. Neither is better unless you specify the application.

So... the whole point of a dual cell mod is to boost your advantage for a particular application. You never know, some people like to do a scale indy 500. (how boring would that be?)
