They can be called indirect (calculated) SWR measurements
and assumptions indeed do form an essential part of the
process. That's not at all unusual for indirect measurements.

Particularly when they can indicate it on non-existent lines.


One of the assumptions is that a transmission line exists. If
a transmission line doesn't exist, the measurement conditional
assumptions are violated, and the actual values may not be
the desired or expected results. Happens all the time with
various measuring instruments.
