Well, yeah. There's only ever one waitlist.
But in your scenario, I frankly don't see what difference it makes at all. If your library is only going to buy one copy, they're only going to buy one copy. How long they'd have to wait to buy a second is irrelevant.
For most libraries which try to match as best they can purchases to demand, the size of the waitlist will help determine how many additional copies they license once the eight week waiting period is done.
I honestly don't get your point, here.
