Well then, please enlighten us, Jim. How does nature choose to
reverse the momentum in the wave reflected from a mismatched
source? It is obvious that the wave reflected from a mismatched
source has momentum in the rearward direction. Exactly what
reverses that momentum? Please be specific. Remember that standing
waves prove that the rearward-traveling wave exists in reality and
thus possesses energy and momentum in the rearward direction, both
of which must be conserved.

Maybe you should read _Microwave_Transmission_ by J. C. Slater
before you continue?
