Actually, I suspect that what you say may hold deeper truths than some
realize, perhaps even than you realize ...

If the ether exists in a form some have imagined, if it is possible to
couple efficiently to this ether, then a one-inch antenna should be on
the same level of effectiveness as a one-hundred foot one.

The "if(s)" is the problem ... and directly relates to that little
problem of proof which has been requested ...
