You can use all the damned words in the world to talk around and
obscure the subject, but when I slide along my line the bulb lights to
maximum brilliance every half wave length of the standing waves...

But what does it mean at the other places along the line where
the bulb does not light?

Does it mean that there is no energy at these points on the line?

Fluorescent bulb or neon bulb respond, are fired, by voltage being higher.
Where the voltage is high, the current is low and vice versa (standing
waves).
Energy is the same along the antenna, just standing waves exhibit max and
min according to distribution of current or voltage along the radiator.

If W8JI, W7EL and their followers moved neon bulb along the loading coil,
they would see the change in brightness along the coil (getting brighter
closer to the top) indicating diminishing current along the same length.
Ergo (standing wave) current is not constant along the loading coil as they
tried to convince their followers to the contrary.
