You cannot be serious.


I am dead serious. You need to think about this a bit more.

Why would something "referenced to the source phase" change when that
source itself was changed? This is no different than the elementary
example of walking in a train car. One's speed relative to the seats
does not change simply because the train is traveling at a different
speed on the rails.

What does your IEEE dictionary say about the meaning of "referenced to"?
