But... If the two motors can not supply the same stall torque and the output shaft is stalled, the torquier motor must back-drive the other motor. This will increase the back EMF of the stronger motor, reducing its torque output. It will also (I think) create negative back EMF on the weaker motor, INCREASING its output torque.
Everything I have read so far seems correct except for the part about the motors. Negative back EMF is created when the motors are spinning at full speed and barely showing little or no torque. The one thing I think will happen is that the little motor will actually become a generator and may actually blow the electronics controlling it. I remeber someone mentioning this.
