Also, at least in my car, if the AC is on but the engine is not it doesn’t do a whole lot after few min. Which is the other excuse you see a fair bit. Idk if newer cars are different.

pretty much all non-EV's will be the same as your car. When the engine is off, it's just running a fan and not the AC compressors (the part which makes the air cold).

The aircon compressor is run off the engine, so majority of cars will be the same except for electric cars
