I may be wrong but I was under the impression that:

1.It was the Baal HaTanya himself who designed the Bor Al Gabbei Bor design 
and this is why Chabad/Lub insists on it
2.They actually believe that it is halachically preferrable since the side 
by side bor has the issue where if the water in the otzar falls below the 
line of the hashaka hole the hashaka ceases! whereas bor on bor there is no 
such fear at all
3.Rav Shach and other poskim opposed it on the halachic grounds that the 
lower bor's hashakah hole gets clogged with dirt and blocked up, thus 
rendering the upper Bor non-kosher
