Great thought experiment! Thanks Ether.
Before I can give a detailed response with my opinion, I need to know one piece of information.
How was " the motor voltage limited to 50%" achieved?
Did the full range of the input just get divided by two, thus yielding half the number of steps of control resolution and half the maximum output?
Or, did the voltage just get capped at 50%, thus yielding half the number of steps of control resolution and half the maximum output?
Or, did the delta between each step of resolution in the input get divided by two, thus yielding the same resolution, but half the maximum output?
