Really, if using a switching regulator, you could use higher voltage (up to 6s). But as you go up on voltage, you don't need near as much capacity. 6s @ 333mA is the same as 2s @ 1A. The only advantage with using just 2s is that if the BEC fails, at least it will only send ~7.4v to the servos/rx and they might survive that.
My thoughts exactly, plus I have everything to do this, so it is "free"...
