Check out my watt versus VoltAmp tests in the OP using a residential electromechanical meter.
It definitely responded to the excessive VoltAmps load I put on it as if they were watts.
The way excessive voltamps load down a generator I think the power company should charge for them.

I originally started out on this power factor thing to make my machines corporate with long extension cords and being powered remotely by a generator. Its turned into an attempt to turn the utility meter slower, which is working quite well.
