that is your statement

err ... no, it's a fact because a graph is a set of triples.  No duplicates.

If the dataset is:

:g1 { :s1 :p1 :o1 }
:g2 { :s2 :p2 :o2 }

and you have
FROM :g1

together with the union of named graphs we have

:s1 :p1 :o1     # union - g1
:s2 :p2 :o2     # union - g2
:s1 :p1 :o1     # explicit FROM

which because a graph is a set of triples is:

:s1 :p1 :o1     
:s2 :p2 :o2

which is the union of the named graph alone.

If you union in any triples already there, it's a no-op.
