To test your hypothesis, use EZNEC over a perfect ground and note the
distinct difference at low angles (less than 5 degrees).

I might add, compare this horizontal's low angle performance to its
free space performance (a world of difference from that nearby
"conductivity" and none of it remarkably "good" even for the most
perfect of grounds). You have to hoist your horizontal pretty high to
bring the phase gains into play.
