Should never mix wattage. It's a closed circuit to t fixture. Power will
distribute equally, based on the higher wattage. Eventually the lower wattage

Total nonsense that violates physics, ohms law, etc. They will work fine. It's no different than a 40 watt, 25 watt, 100 watt and 150 watt plugged into different receptacles on one circuit.
