All the people I know in the UK who have needed a second passport (and that is quite a few) have received it. Yes there are rules, but it seems to work at the end. By contrast, I am still to meet any fellow Frenchman who has managed to get the same. It could be chance but I suspect that for whatever reason, the French authorities are just making this difficult.
