Both staements not quite true.In summary these are useful knowledge I have picked up:
2. "...there are no field coils to drop the voltage for the armature".
Meaning that due to lack of a field coil the armature will carry all the current, which translates to more turns to increase resistance. And that leads to the next problem.
3. "...if that many turns will fit in the existing armature slots."
I made a wild guess of adding 50% more turns based on universal motor winding without considering the absence of field winding.
