Chuck,
I suspect that you're right, but I also suspect that the engineering and
effect of this HVAC feature is very suboptimal unless the fan is on. Is
that correct?
First of all. let me give credit where credit is due. As usual, Mike's
description is sooo much better.
So, yes, you are correct.

It goes to a box with a flap that lets air in or keeps it out. The
flap is actuated by the bottom lever on the heater controls. From
there there is ducting that goes to the fan.
