Talk to Ludwik about it, he agrees with me that doing both experiments
at the same time on the same circuit is valid. Check his response in

Maybe he can explain it better to you than I can. I'm fresh out of new
ways to explain it, sorry.
Of course you can perform both measurements (current vs time and temperature rise)
simultaneously in the same experiment - however, nowhere does he agree that the
results can be added. They are simply two ways of measuring the same quantity - the
energy in the capacitor.
