Yes. You are correct, Sir!
And, briefly, that means that the two outputs are tied together. The more
difference in voltage values, theoretically the more strain is placed on the
power supplies. However, actually, these supplies are rugged and the time is
brief. Therefore it should work.
If something fails, it will be the supply, not the motor. Most of us have more
supplies than we need. I know I do anyway.
