Have you included the fact that the *source* is properly terminating
the line on its end?

The source is relying on an ideal autotuner to
terminate the line with a 50 ohm Z0-match.

The source can accept power from the reflected wave, right?

No, there is an ideal autotuner on the output of the
source. *Zero reflected energy reaches the source*. The
SWR between the Source and the Autotuner is 1:1 just
as it is in any properly tuned antenna system.
