Hmm, that's what I would expect from LOAD RECORD. The file/data is part of the record, after all. But it wouldn't be the case if I were simply referencing a field in that record from a linked record. For instance let's say there is a table name [Photo] where the image file is stored. If I have a form that displays a record in [Photographer] which links to [Photo]Title it's my understanding simply referencing Title wouldn't load the entire record. I believe queries are optimized to only load the data stored in the record.
