GPU miner here, been running dual PSUs for last decade. My typical rig consists of one motherboard, 6 or 8 cards, two PSUs 650-850W each, for total of 1100-1200W per rig. They are running for years on end, without any reboots.
I presume you just speaking from what you heard, not real experience?
I agree, that running two PSUs on one electrical device (like one Apollo or one GPU) is a no no. But don't extrapolate that to "One should NEVER try to run ANY sort of PSU's in parallel" (your quote), because that's BS.

Are you running your PSUs in parallel or in series though?  It seems you have one set of things powered by one and another set of things powering separate items.
