For instance, if I had an Ion engine leave Earth today and tomorrow that engine launched another Ion engine- wouldn’t the acceleration of the 2nd Ion engine over the original engine relative to Earth be greater?
There would be no advantage other than reducing the mass to be pushed compared to just adding engine #2 to #1. It’s simply a matter of force expended.
