How wrong would it be to say that the *coax* part of the line doesnt
radiate at all?


The physical construction of the coax (ideal version) ensures
that the inside of the coax doesn't radiate because, for
ideal coax, the internal currents are perfectly balanced.
Any unbalance in the currents is forced to the outside shield
by the laws of physics.

I failed to emphisze that any current on the outside of a coaxial
transmission line are out of the bounds of the defination of Coax.
