The real revelation for me, from this discussion is how the concept of
"phase" takes a dimensional jump (from time to position) when you
change from taking about a traveling wave to the standing wave that
results from the superposition of a pair of oppositely traveling waves
of the same frequency.

Yet some people continue to argue that standing wave current is
the same in form and function as traveling wave current. There
certainly is quite a difference between cos(kz)*cos(wt) and
cos(kz+wt)
