Not so sure about that reasoning. Our AC compressor really pulls on the motor. On a hot day, my idle will go from ~700 without AC up to about 900rpm with the AC running. Catch the Z off guard (if you will) and you go from 700rpm to 500rpm...a perceived hiccup.

That being said, I've had the low idle hiccup on hot days with the windows down and AC off.
