Even when the only transmission line consists the output connector of
the SWR meter, and maybe an inch of internal coax, there will still BE a
standing wave - but it will only be a tiny portion of longer one.

There will NOT be standing waves and there will not be a voltage
maximum and a voltage minimum unless there is a transmission line.

Are you saying that for a standing wave to qualify as a standing wave,
the transmission line needs to be long enough for there to be a voltage
maximum a voltage minimum?
