Exactly! The method that most RF engineers use does not tell how the
energy flows. Witness the posters who are implying that a reflected
wave contains no energy because they cannot figure out where that
energy goes or how it gets there. In his food-for-thought example,
w7el completely ignores the role of superposition/interference in
redistributing the energy, a phenomenon known and understood in the
field of optical physics for at least a century.
