Default install a 2-lamp fixture in place of a 1-lamp fixture?

just by fixtures that use CFLs or LED which will keep the fixture
temperature down.

If you happen to have K&T its time to plan on a complete rewire.


**Yes, but if the fixture has a tag that says something like: risk of fire,
do not install on wire with a temperature rating of less than 90 degrees.
Isn't the house inspector going to flag you at resale time, or how about
your insurance company not paying the claim when your house catches fire...
and I know you're an expert on K&T, but what about other types of
discontinued conductors like T, TW, RH. What should you do if you have that
in your walls?
