R-f transmission-line swr reduction by what ever means is, I think, akin to
what the local power company accomplishes by hanging lumps of reactance

The sum of the loads on a power line is virtually always inductive
so the power company adds capacitors where they are needed. That is
akin to stubs on an RF transmission line. Guess how long a 1/8WL stub
would be at 60 Hz. :-)
