It's a tradeoff either way, but I would still task the platoons separately if I thought it was at all possible to cap a base with two squads. While it is true that you are splitting your forces, you are doing so with the intention of doubling your caps and giving the enemy more than one real headache to deal with at the same time. If we take a decoy base that we cannot hold it will only buy a limited window, but if we put solid defenses up in both bases, the chances are increased that at least one of them can hold on to the cap.
