Someone said something about electrical load. The only electrical load the compressor has is the small amount for the clutch, the rest is the mechanical load of compressing something to upwards of 400 psi.

High side operating pressure for a 134A system will typically be around 200-225 on a 90F day. But the low side will still be about 30, so the actual pumping load (pressure differential across the compressor) will be about 175-200. The system high pressure switch is probably set at 250, maybe 300.
I agree with the rest of your post.
