The V/I ratio causes rho which causes the voltage???


Nope. Rho is not dependent upon V/I ratios other than those at real
physical impedance discontinuities. I think you know that. V/I ratios
can vary with position along the line and are not constrained to
equalling Z0 or Zl.


Consider the following:

Source---50 ohm feedline---+---1/2WL 150 ohm---50 ohm load

Isn't the 50 ohms that causes rho=0 on the 50 ohm feedline
simply the V/I ratio at point '+'?
