Answer:
Hey Shandon thanks for your question and it is not stupid. There are some additional details that could apply based on other protection requirements for those appliances but it seems you are asking about supplying both from one branch circuit. Depending on the equipment ratings, if they are fastened in place, and how they are connected; both appliances on one branch circuit might exceed the values as stated in 210.21(B) and 210.23.
