To bring a small amount of on-topicness to this post, does anyone know
why he
flew so many of his hours in that bizarre 2-seater F-102?

No problem there at all. He had to train in the airplane. That means
he flew the two-seater during operational qualfication. Every F-102
equipped unit had a couple of "tubs" and if they weren't used for
check-out or periodic check rides, they could fill the flying
schedule.

We (49th FIS) referred to our 2 seat -106 as 'The Bus'.
