supplementary 50 watt metal halide?

so im curious if you think it would be worthwhile to use a small bulb like a 50 watt metal halide (that is otherwise just sitting in a corner collecting dust) alongside a 1000 watt hps during flower to try to provide some UVA and UVB and perhaps to a lesser extent some of the missing blue spectrum? or is this literally going to be a drop in the bucket and not worth the extra setup/heat/wires/power?

just to clarify, the intent here would be to increase thc/terpene production, rather than yield, as a 1000 watt hps provides plenty as it stands.
