It seems to me the A/C cuts out at particular throttle settings regardless of actual load (of course I could be wrong here).

I haven't monitored the actual throttle percentage at where this seems to occur (data is available on OBD Fusion when connected to the A Network through a Carista reader) but I would guess it's around 85-90% of throttle travel.

The effect on the A/C in those circumstances is like a light switch. Running the system on recirculate does help moderate the effect, but there's not enough Squash air freshener in the world to solve what happens when you run it that way for a long time... even with a fresh cabin filter.
