That's very similar to the system I'm thinking of. Just a different knot. The one I've seen uses an eight on a double bight in a cordellete that's already tied into a loop. Likewise, the 2 lockers in this system could be replaced with rap rings.
The system is not redundant. Cut the cord and you're done. It does, however, equalize 2, 3, or more (just add more arms/biners) pieces very well. As Paul points out, some level of redundancy can be added by clipping the rope to one of the pieces in the anchor.
