VSWR doesn't matter?

And this it the reason that much of the voltage reflected from an

For whatever reason, ghosting of this sort proves that the reflected
energy
makes a round trip from the load to the source and back. The ghosting
delay is exactly what a speed-of-light EM traveling wave would
experience.
In fact, multiple ghosting is caused by multiple reflections.
