It is well established that short antennae are poor performers (and
practical experiments on the CFA showed that).

Wrong, wrong, wrong.

It is a well established fact by electromagnetics that short antennas
perform identically with long antennas with respect to the power radiated.

It is a well established fact by basic physics that the problem of
getting power into a short antenna is entirely due to I^2R losses in
practical sized conductors.

An antenna and a feed system are two different things.
