Yes, in exact accordance with the distributed network
model. What it means is that the source is not delivering
the folded-in reflected energy at the time the reflected
energy joins the source signal. Since I don't see that
energy in Keith's equations, chances are that is why
they didn't balance.

You are missing an important observation here. When the energy from the reflected wave folds into the forward wave, any further analysis is a replication of the first analysis. Nothing new is learned.

I think what you want to see is a source matched to the load, so that all the energy flows one way, to the resistor Rs. Your proposal is to allow/force reflectons from the source Vs so that effectively, the resistor Rs becomes the only load. This is then a demonstration/proof for what?
