Why would you build ships out of wood if not to burn them?

The rarest, most ancient trees volunteered for the project and they burn the best!
Upon arriving at the New World, Cortezh burned hish shipsh behind them. Ash a reshult, hish men were well motivated.
Do you get extra move speed if you stack multiple propulsion systems? Like if I had motorized wheels on my shoes id have n speed. If I walked id have h speed. If I walked with motorized wheels on my shoes do I just acheive the higher between n and h, or do they add up together?
It's not exactly what you asked, but I'm a little high: if you could decouple the propulsion systems you could go faster. Just like you can't dangle a magnet in front of a boat to get it to move while it is attached to the same boat
But it reminds me of this:
An article-
And a video(s)-
Edit:
Also, looking at the picture again and rereading what you wrote: I feel like it'd be like the difference between a person walking parallel to a person walking on a conveyor belt that's running the same direction they are. Something would be moving you along as you are also moving.
I back that up with the fact the elephant will only have one foot off the ground while walking same as a human would, and their spiderbowl feet would keep it moving forward at a constant rate same as the conveyor would
It's just relativity of motion depending on the frame of reference. For instance, if I have motorised shoes and am walking on an elephant running on a train that progresses on a large ball rolling on a treadmill (with friction) while a monkey is running on the ball in the other direction (without friction); relative to my dog sitting on the couch (with friction), the couch is immobile.
What if i take the dash option
