I was always under the impression that the double expo response to 12 nexus was done without the bunker rush, with you relying on very fast mines to contain the toss while you take a fast 3rd. The time you have without a bunker rush to slow you down to secure your 3rd is already limited, so I don't know if double expo after a failed bunker rush would work out so well.

First we have to define what a failed bunker rush is:
Fail to me means getting economically/technologically behind.
If this is the case, absolutely no to the double expand. Even if the terran is able to make mines, the protoss should have enough dragoons to barge through the mines and attack the undefended third. Any subsequent vultures will be laying away from the dragoons, otherwise the mines/vultures will be picked off.
