Can you get away with only completing a third of this puzzle?

I don't have an easy way to test this myself, so I figured I'd ask in case someone else was.

Looking at it from a "trying-to-break-the-game" point of view, the rotating bridge puzzle of the Isle of Songs seems like you can only move the outermost part of the bridge into position (if not, maybe just the outermost and the middle) and just dive onto it to get inside. Clearly this would be rather cheap, so I'm wondering if it's possible, and if not, what the game does to stop you.

Nope, you can't. The bridges move if they aren't lined up right and if you fly, so...

I should say that I did this before I understood what the puzzle was, it was really annoying...
