In all likelihood they won't be able to make any sense out of it
anyway.

=========================

I gave you a break. The whole lot of it is nothing but Scattering
parameters. Might be fine for SHF and above. Useless for mobile
matching at HF.

"Useless" only in the sense of being unnecessarily complicated and
inconvenient to use. But not incorrect!

ALL valid methods will give the same correct result, if they are applied
correctly. That's how we confirm that a method is valid - by checking
its results for a series of test problems that can be solved by other
methods too.

Roy has posed a test problem that is very easy to understand, and can be
solved unambiguously by simple arithmetic. Solving it using S-parameters
will take time and some depth of understanding, but we can be confident
that they WILL give exactly the same result in the end.

The challenge for Cecil is to make his own theory do the same.
