"That seems totally out of line to me. It is a bizarre setup that makes no sense. Why have 4 chords of rope going to the climber off only two pieces of protection? Why loop the rope at the pieces rather than clove hitching it?"
This is an example, maybe unclear from the picture, of using the rope to extend the belay when the anchor points are out of reach of the stance, the loops to clove hitches make it easy to adjust the length. Using clove hitches or figure 8 knots at the pieces obviously would also work, just trickier to get it right over longer distances.
