I don't think you'll miss many of the better fish without the tailhook. It is important to wrap the shank of the head hook with dacron, or braid - or something that will allow the glue to bond the hook and bait together. Steve however, I've never heard of him fishing without the second hook - he's very fast at rigging them.
Just make sure you wrap the hook shank with something before gluing. If you glue the hook without wrapping it, the bait slides down the the shank and tears. I have a bunch of pre-rigged sluggos - with two hooks and with one. They're all in a box waiting for me to do photography. The double hooked sluggos are pretty expensive though because I have to pay someone to rig them - I don't have time to rig sluggos.
I'm quite sure their are several viable ways to rig the sluggos. The videos prove that the sluggos have great action and catch fish - that was the major message. Rigging and methodologies are going to vary between regions and fishing styles, just like they do for pretty much everything we use.
