Dual is good, but no indirect cathode means you can't USE them like dual matched, except with common-cathode circuits. High voltage is good, but it's not high ENOUGH.
A real dual triode, 6BC8, has transconductance 6200 micromhos, this has 54. The grid capacitances are terribly high, and no plate current to speak of.
The only use for this particular item is to show the concepts of vacuum tubes, not how they can be useful. So, it's more a physics demo widget than a real building block.
