Default Why?

"Earlier I explained that Gaussian law can be expanded to provide a link

I am one who missed Art`s explanation. I am curious as Gauss and
antennas have not been directly related in my mind.

Wikipedia says:
"The total of electric flux out of a closed surface is equal to the
charge divided by the permittivity."

J.C. Maxwell may have found Gauss useful, but why do I need him in
amateur antenna wotk?
