Default Water burns!

Apparently in response to something. Perhaps an inflammatory
discussion where the author took a contrary position on the subject?

The term 'power flow' has been avoided in favor of
'energy flow'.


The term was avoided, with the one exception. I believe the term
'flux capacitor' was avoided entirely.

Power is a measure of that energy flow per unit
time through a plane.


Among other things.

Likewise, the EM fields in the waves do
the interfering.


Likewise??

Powers, treated as scalars, are incapable of
interference."


Should go without saying (irrespective of how you treat 'them').

the 10th time or more, I agree with you that "power flow" is
probably an invalid concept and that powers cannot interfere.


It's been my hope that you would agree that waves don't cause other
waves to change direction, and as such interference doesn't cause
energy to change direction. Such a brilliant person shouldn't hold
fanciful notions of nature in my opinion. Maybe someday you'll write
another paper deferring to purists on this point.
