When I now raise all the dampers, the energy imparted to the  
previously damped strings is no longer converted into heat.  Some of  
the strings will begin to vibrate strongly in sympathy with the played  
notes and all their partials, and others less strongly, having less  
sympathy, fewer shared frequencies or possibly none.

this makes perfect logical sense. No extra energy, just uncovering  
what was “hidden” by the dampers. sounds like well-applied math,  
science and good craftsmanship making the “magic.”

by the way, i've never heard of this or noticed it, but now i'll be  
looking for it.
