Ive tested this out on a couple runs the whole way through flower. I didnt really see any difference.
It may help plants to finish a few days earlier than they otherwise would have...if you run your entire flower at 11/13.
In my experience, running 11/13 only does a couple things: 1) lower electricity cost, 2) sometimes brings out different expressions of structure, color, terpenes, etc...but again, if you run your entire flower at 11/13.

What happens at 10/14 whole way through flower?
You turn into a troll who can't make an inference.
That wasn’t an inference, it was a real question about a 10/14 light schedule all the through flower. What will the result’s be?

most likely the same as 12/12 but with less yield from having less DLI

I have 2 tents in 1 room so I let one cool down before the other turns on. I make sure they don't over lap on the same circuit

My personal opinion, it's just an extra hour of electricity savings.
Flipping to 11/13 as your initial flowering cycle may prompt flowering a wee bit sooner, and my understanding with reducing from 12/12 to 11/13 in late flowering/ripening, it may help facilitate some color change/senescence. I genuinely don't think it speeds up the overall flowering time enough worth mention, maaaaybe one or two days out of a full 12 weeks.
