My only comment was in regard to the definition of steady state.

I doubt that we have different definitions of "steady-state".
I didn't post a definition and I don't recall you posting one.

What I said was that some of the 300 joules existing in the
one second long transmission line during steady-state was
supplied by the source before steady-state was reached,
i.e. during the initial transient state.
