Yes, those are the expected results for the acpi-cpufreq CPU frequency scaling driver.
You should be able to observe the governor set to sched util for the first minute
after re-boot and/or if you set it yourself after the /etc/init.d/ondemand script
has finished (i.e. more than 1 minute after re-boot.)

Yes, but only because there are different available governors for the two drivers.

As far as I know the /etc/init.d/ondemand is working properly. It sets the acpi-cpufreq
driver to use the "ondemand" governor and it sets the intel_pstate driver to use the
"powersave" governor.
