Would it break the game to allow 2 moves/player after white's initial turn 1 single move?

Probably not more than it would break most other variants.

But the goal was to design something with the character of Chess, but (much) larger. Introducing weirdness that has no bearing on size only makes it more alien. Perhaps the Terrors, with their hit-and-run capture and anti-trading rule are already too much.
