The switches in the middle represent just a single 4-way (or crossover or DPDT) switch in real life. Therefore you should switch the both switches at the same.

I hear you, but I don't agree this is two-way. About Multiway switching the Wikipedia says this: This article follows American usage. Readers in the most other countries should read "two-way" or "SPDT" for the American "three-way" and "intermediate", "crossover" or "DPDT" switch for the American "four-way".
