Back in the days before LEDs, I had 2 halogen lights wired in via a switch box that had a switch for each light, allowing left, right, left+right or neither light to be in use. The normal "short out the secondary" approach to twin lights results in instant darkness and a mandatory bulb change if the primary bulb blows.
For the first couple of months, I'd got the switches wired up wrongly, so "both off" was actually both shorted. It was quite noticeable that there was extra handlebar vibration, once I paid attention.
