This set-up looks like if the anchor on the left failed, your second would have a long fall...

Artem is absolutely right. The set up is wrong. The Reverso should have been put in the master point. The belayer may choose to stay in master point or use the upper shelf. In the last case, one strand of each loop should be clipped, not both of the same loop as is seen in this set up.
