As Reg once noted, you could measure Zo with your ohmmeter in an
infinite line.

But some people play semantic games. The IEEE dictionary generally
avoids definitions of adjectives and favors adjectives plus nouns,
e.g. "ohmic contact".

From my physics book, an ohmic conductor is one whose resistivity
is constant with changing voltage. Does "resistivity" imply dissipation?
