You should have warned us that you were talking about NET waves and
NET energy transfer. I'm not discussing that at all. I am talking about
component waves and component energy transfer without which standing
waves cannot exist. Or maybe you can offer an example of standing waves
in the absence of at least two waves traveling in opposite directions.
If you can do that, I will admit defeat.

I suppose this is an prime example of being seduced by "math models",
but I believe that is a lesser fault than being seduced by Cecil's
imaginary models.

It is indeed an example of being seduced by the NET math model. Please
transfer over to the component math model and rejoin the discussion.
Lots of interesting things are happening below the threshold of the
NET math model. The NET math model doesn't explain anything except
the NET results. If your bank account balance doesn't change from one
month to another, do you also assume that you have written no checks
and have no income for that month? Literally speaking, please get real!
