That's not exactly how it works...

MV-S is 38mm.
Area (opening) is 1134.1 square-mm

Two of them would have a combined opening of 2268.2 square-mm.

Your math says that two 38mm must be the same as a 76mm. Not true, because:

76mm diameter = 4536.5 square-mm opening.

Obviously 2268.2 does not equal 4536.5

To find out the single equivalent of two 38mm, you need to find the diameter of a circle with an area of 2268.2 square-mm. This would be 53.6mm.

So, two 38mm wastegates should flow the same volume as a single ~54mm wastegate.

Cheers.
