RE: shunt regulated upgraded ParamourII 45 project starts today

I have a question in general. Is it really necessary to burn off the same current in the shunt as the output stage in a Class A SE parafeed stage? For example, for a stage biased at 55ma, with a plate choke, would a ccs to feed the shunt regulator set 75ma work? Or would you need to set it 110ma? I have seen many state that the shunt should shunt the same amount of current as the load, but never a reason why for a class a stage.

Thanks,
Chris
