Considering only the attenuator case, you suggest in such a general

source that includes an attenuator for the purpose of constraining the
equivalent source impedance.

Owen, why do you feel compelled to lie about what I said?

If the reflected energy is dissipated within the source, it
increases the dissipation. If the reflected energy is not
dissipated within the source, it does not increase the
dissipation. Why is that so hard for you to understand?
