Art Unwin wroyte:
"Then the book is incorrect assuming you are using statements
correctly."

I included page numbers to make it easy to check the accuracy of my
translation.

Art said elements are "critically coupled". Critical coupling is defined
as maximum energy transfer at the resonant frequency.

Coupling additions (more loads) to a feedpoint lowers the impedance
unless additional measures (transformations) are taken. Coupling more
loads to a feedpoint is tantamount to paralleling resistors. Terman is
right.
