The school/league isn't getting what they paid for if they pay the double fee. I think it's a bit of a misnomer to say that a single official is working twice as hard, but I believe that schools/leagues/teams can agree that a single official works harder than multiple officials. From the school/league's perspective, I can understand why they wouldn't want to pay full cost for a single official.
