Many boots have 4 buckles. Are there any advantages being omitted with just two buckes?

Yes, with fewer buckles you get less power and control from the boot. If you are into serious touring and need to save weight, these would be a good fit, but if you aren't going on multi-day tours you might be better off getting a 3/4 buckle boot for the increased downhill performance.
