one adf

Why do airlines/manufacturere penny pinch on the relatively small extra cost of a second ADF. There are may instances of incidents/accidents caused by the lack of a second one. The USAF 737 fatal at Dubrovnik being just one. Trying a twin locator (ADF) approach with only one is iffy to say the least.
Or am I just behind the times?
