I think the lower profile of the Twin Peaks has some advantages in the wind. This benefit is probably offsest by the extra width of the teepee though. Any side panel deflection due to wind is going to intrude in the useable space easier on the Twin Peaks than a larger Teepee.
The more important wind related thing may be the pole. If you strap two treking poles together with a 8-12" overlap to use as the center pole of the teepee, it will probably be much wobblier than using 1 trekking pole per peak in the Twin Peak type tent.
Also, the steeper sides of the Twin Peaks means you don't have to beat the sides as often to keep snow from building up during storms.
On the other hand, the extra room to move around in a teepee sure is nice when snow camping...
