For some recipes you need the yolk while the white is refuse, like sabayon for example. Of course if you have white leftover and don't use it to make merengue, you're insane.

I don't think you get more yolk from doubles, since they are comparatively much smaller. I guess it could be a tad more, but it never felt that way and I've cracked a lot of eggs.

You would probably get less egg whites which would still be a win as some recipes don't use em so it's less waste but these can't be cheap I imagine. I could just Google it but eeeehhhh.
