the main function of the lp switch is to protect the compressor in case of leaks its other function is to stop the evaporator freezing up ,short term by passing it would be ok providing that you didnt run the system if it was obviously not working as running it with low pressure or a leak could cause damage to the compressor if it was run with low pressure causing the oil to leak and run the compressor with no oil.
it sounds as if the lp switch is faulty but would only be able to tell if system fully charged
