You just proved one of my points. Inventing impedors that do not exist
in reality in order to rationalize the real-world delay through a real-
world loading coil is exactly what I have been complaining about. Are
the imaginary lumped-circuit capacitors, to which you are forced to
resort, part of the actual impedance in reality or a figment of your
imagination?

"The concept of coil 'self-capacitance' is an attempt to circumvent
transmission line effects on small coils when the current distribution
begins to depart from its DC behavior." About the capacitors you added
above it says: "Of course, this is merely a statistical determination
appropriate for computations ... and *not at all a physical
quantity*."

The reason that the source voltage and source current are in phase in
the example is because the load resistor equals the Z0 of the coil
which is functioning in transmission line mode with a VF = 0.019, i.e.
like a transmission line, it is indeed 0.1167 wavelengths long
electrically. I have verified such (within a certain degree of
accuracy) through bench experiments.
