The answer is because the radiation resistance is measured in milliohms
and a matching network to match 50 Ohms to milliohms has huge resistive
losses.

Afraid you've just shot yourself in the foot, there, Old Chap, because the
reason that the apparent radiation resistance is so low is because so little
is radiated!

Cart, horse, reversed.

And it is not the "apparent radiation resistance " it is the real, calculable,
and measurably radiation resistance, you gas bag.
