Lossless resistance makes volts per amp. Inductors and capacitors are
lossless because they only store energy and give it all back.

A lossless resistance stores no energy. Its action is immediate.

An inductance or capacitance with zero reactance also stores no energy
and makes no volts per amp as opposition.
