Is it necessary to use 2 watchdog timers for class B compliance?

In the ST STL library (en.x-cube-classb-v2-3-0) they have used both watchdog timers. Is it necessary to use both watchdog timers(IWDG and WWDG) for class B compliance?

Two watchdogs alone won't make a product safe, and used improperly could make it extremely unsafe.

But in en.x-cube-classb-v2-3-0 package (STL library solution) enabled both IWDG and WWDG and used too. In STM32xx_STLmain.c file contains these details in
