Can poor soldering of ESC wires lead to low voltage draw from a Lipo battery?
Your concerns are in the right place, but the reasoning is incorrect.
First things first:
You don't draw voltage from a battery
Current flows as a result of differential voltage. The ESC doesn't tell ...

Amperage of FC, ESC
sometimes I see in OCD far beyond 5A and 6A
Those specs are probably per motor, so 4 motors could pull 20A.
And I think you mean OSD, for On Screen Display.
1c = 12 A
Nope, 1200mAh is 1.2A, so 1c ...

Rewiring 2S2P as 4S
Yes, that's exactly right. It's just a difference in how the cells are connected.
Don't worry about balancing the voltage - your charger will do that for you when you charge it. No current will flow ...
