Doubling the weight load on the roof just seems wrong and lazy.
I know the rest of the world or at least almost everywhere I have been uses cement shingle but they are very rare in the U.S.
In the U.S. we normally use asphalt composite shingles or steel for residential roofing.
Nothing like seeing a rickety shack buckling while holding up 9 tons of cement roofing.
