Good to have the option of a second spare on the hood for off pavement trips, but it's not needed if tire shops are available.
Hoods that have partially buckled when dropped with a spare are not uncommon. Rust doesn't help the structure underneath.
A spare smaller than the other 4 tires is a space saver intended to get you to the repair shop at a reduced speed.
