None of the laws named after Maxwell state any such thing.

Exactly.
But he garnished laws for his use that were all based on equilibrium
as stated by
other masters as the basis of their findings.
I gave one sample of this by mathematics and the use of Gauss's
theorem to show that Maxwell encompassed the effects of equilibrium
without the verbalisation. Another point I would make about
equilibrium that its very existance defines the lack of moving charge
on the innards of a conductor to achieve Newtons law of action and
reaction where skin depth comes into being as part and parcel of that
concept.. Another point where proof comes into place is that the
computer programs show that for maximum polarisation of any kind and
antenne is not verticle or at right angles to the earth because of
vector values that are encompased by equilibrium. So yes, the premise
of equilibrium is firmly planted in Maxwells laws because of its
content in other laws that he mathematically, which was his interest,
manipulated regardess of their origins.
If one used the Gaussian extension that I used in place of Maxwells
laws it can be readily seen that radiation is created by the movement
of particles, evidence that Maxwell could not and did not supply thus
leaving a void for Einstein that forced him away from classical
physics.
So yes, Maxwell made a huge error by not mentioning the requirement of
equilibrium per Newtons laws.
