Yes.....to your comments.

As you state..wires have to be "good". A battery
cable from the alternator is "very good" So the
voltage as measured at the alternator will
be extremely close to battery voltage. The poor condition
of miscellaneous wires and connections to accessories
can never cause a voltage rise....only a drop.

We can debate all day whether the "pressure" in your
bucket analogy is high enough to raise the voltage
of two, 100 amp hour batteries connected in parallel
to levels of almost 15 volts.

thanks for all your suggestions!
