Dan, I don't deny there may be cases where that may happen, but it is not
true that reflected power is necessarily dissipated (or partly
dissipated) in the equivalent source resistance.

The question is whether reflected power is ever dissipated
in the source. I can come up with a black box source that
dissipates 100% of the reflected power. All it takes is
a circulator and a load resistor. How does your DC
principles handle a circulator?
