Seems to me that with doubles, separating the boxes may be easy for some who
scrape a lot, but  for the rest of us, it is simple to roll (tumble) the two
boxes forward until the bottom of the hive is facing up, dribble, then roll
back into place, using a pallet or some such platform to roll onto, if the
hives are far off the ground.
