Default Standing morphing to travelling waves, and other stupid notions

By "illusionary", I certainly didn't mean "imaginary". A magician's
act contains illusions based on real events. It's just that the
audience doesn't comprehend what is really happening. That's exactly
what is occurring here with standing waves. The standing waves, like
the magician's illusions, certainly have a real existence but many of
the conclusions about standing waves that are presented here are based
on the illusions created by those real standing waves (which do not
meet the definition for EM, i.e. photonic waves).
