Any discussion of inductors and waves needs to either

e.g., Maxwell's equations. Certainly not a lumped-circuit
model that presupposes that EM waves travel through anything
and everything faster than the speed of light.
Or else, endless and pointless arguments will ensue.
Yep, notice how the inductors that Tom is talking keep
getting smaller and smaller with time. Pretty soon they
will indeed be point-sized inductors. :-)
