Not really - according to your measurements, at 25V, the caps should have
about 1.46uF, so the series combination has 0.73uF instead of the 0.83uF of
the parallel combination.

One cap is .83 at 50 volts. Two in parallel would be 1.66.
The series pair is about .73 as you note. That assumes that the DC
voltage divides equally.
Ceramic cap nonlinearity is weird. To get the most C, is it always
better to pick the cap with the highest nameplate capacitance?
Some caps are 1/5 their rated C at their rated voltage. Bad for timing
circuits.
