Traps are a different subject. Self-resonant coils should only

But a trap needn't be any more self-resonant and lossy that a loading
coil. A loading coil could function as both if it were in the proper
position for the upper band(s). No?

I'm not sure about "both". It's more than obvious that a resonant
coil+cap will (almost) always be more efficient than a self-resonant
coil.
