Good grief! If you want to argue, find someone else!
All I said is sufficient gearing will basically cause the motor to have very little load, regardless of the switch involved. It takes a certain amount of current to spin a totally unloaded motor. With a high gear ratio, there will be very little load experienced by the motor, even with a significantly different load, the gear train probably contributes more to the loading of the motor than the switch mechanism. Nowhere did I say "exact", try not putting words in my mouth. 
Since the tortoise only draws around 15-16ma at full stall, there isn't much room for a huge difference in running power, regardless of the load. I think you should revisit Mechanics 101, the section on gear ratios.
Feel free to have the last word, because this is my last word in this topic.
