I don't agree that the terms power and energy become interchangeable
by virtue of the fact that their units can both be expressed with the

That's why I am willing to switch from the words "Reflected
Power" to "Reflected Energy" and measure that energy flow
past a point on a transmission line in joules/second.
SNIPPED
Energy FLOW implies a unit of time. Flow indicates a flow rate. In the absence
of a flow rate you are discussing static conditions.
Conclusion: all the illogical rational in the world does not change the
understanding of energy flow energy/unit time = power = watts =
joules/second pass a point or dissipated.
Cecil, as an engineer you should stick with standard vocabulary.
