That’s no reason to bypass the compressor.

How so? Seems a perfectly reasonable reason to me. Can remove all of that dead weight, reduce drag on the engine etc.. The AC gear is a fair amount of weight, and even unclutched the compressor will add drag to the engine. Moreso if it's corroded and seizing. If it's one of these variable compressors that can't be de-clutched that's even more drag you would save!

Would you like to explain why, what you would achieve etc?
