Google Shows Two Featured Snippets For One Query

Google Double Rainbow

Some folks are noticing that Google is showing two featured snippets for a single query. It is not the multifaceted featured snippets from earlier this year where Google would show you variations of featured snippets based on multiple ways to understand the query. But instead, showing two featured snippets for one way to understand the query.

Here is a screen shot from Sanket Kedari on Twitter:

Google Two Featured Snippets

Or maybe these are those mutifacted featured snippets being seen more widely?

There are many other examples of this being spotted in the past couple days. I cannot replicate any of them.

So I am wondering if this was or is a bug or if this is a real test of some sorts?

Have you seen double featured snippets in this setting?
