"I am trying to deduce an alternative to the thinking current can hurdle
a capacitor and retain its time variation."

An early demonstration of electroostatic repulsion was via an instrument
called the electroscope. Put a charge on its plates and it opened like a
book. It proved like charges repelled and that repulsion was
proportional to charge.

From that it can be imagined that if you put a charge on one insulated
plate and like charges on an insulated plate nearby have an avenue of
escape to the outside world, you may have produced a capacitor useful
for ac coupling or bypass. It isn`t a hurdle. It is a device capable of
a displacement current which blocks dc but passes ac. It`s a device
formerly called a condenser, now called a capacitor.

just wait till he tries to tell you that the plates have to be diamagnetic
so his fictional static particles can jump off the plate. i quit watching
his direct responses after he couldn't explain why ferro magnetic plates
wouldn't work when it is well known that they will.
