On the contrary, if one assumes same-cycle reflections, the reflection
model works perfectly. Why wouldn't a 50 ohm source looking into a 100
ohm resistor suffer an immediate reflection (energy rejection)? :-)

Why wouldn't it, indeed.

if there are no components that introduce a time delay it would. so no
transmission lines allowed... hence no reflections. and you are back to a
simple lumped resistor problem.
