Advantages of having more pigment molecules in a photocenter are as follows: 

1. Having more than one pigment molecule in photocenter means more sunlight being captured and thus facilitating more effective light reaction. 

2. It will provide protection to chlorophyll molecule against photo-oxidation. 

3. More pigments will capture more energy to start the initial reactions, which is not possible by single pigment.
