The second port is actually there on the other side of the black box,
but it has been overlooked. Doesn't it give anyone pause to realize
that the s11 parameter changes by an infinite percentage depending
upon whether it is measured as a one-port system or as a two-port
system?


No. The experiment is designed as a one-port experiment. You have broken
