i have read of the heart beeing just there aswell to double the blood efeciency of the gigantic bodies of space marines. in logick its what? 250Kgish man now from average 100KGish of meat and guts and that needs blood wich the heart pumps around only logical would then be to put a extra heart in to keep it easy to normal and able to pump alot when action is needed, i can get that the original heart gets bigger, but i dont belive it can keep it going at super fast space marine fighting awarnes alone, therfor an extra heart, also it works as a emergency system when the body is baldy damaged, but then all functions are down and they go into a coma... so i belive it got more work then just emergency life system.
