Yet you've found it impossible to explain, either numerically or in
equation form, which "power wave" these "interference terms" belongs to,
or how this "interference" comes about in your model of superposing,
traveling power waves.

The explanation is indeed simple -- as long as you can continue to avoid
explaining it.

In general, our feedline losses are low enough that it does
work. In general on HF, we are dealing with near-resistive
Z0's and Z0-matched systems.

As has been aptly demonstrated in another thread, it does
not work for lines with complex Z0.


Actually it does. All one has to do is take the power interference
terms into account.
