Seems to me it just implies that current at the end of a dipole isn't
really zero.
The net current is very close to zero because the forward and reflected
currents are very nearly equal and 180 degrees out of phase.
I think it may actually make many round trips. There may be multiple
reflections.
Of course, but like a transmission line, there is only one forward wave
and one reflected wave. All the multiple reflections are contained in
those two waves.
