I also use vacuum variables as load capacitors in high power amplifiers but
for good reason, not for not existent high voltages.
Loading capacitors in simple Pi circuits are stressed by current, not by
voltage.

Nobody? I invite you to look inside my amp or most any amp that uses a
vacuum variable as the load cap. 

And mine has never arced despite the occasional wrong antenna.
