Crucially, you don't. The main property of a "coil" is inductance,
and at the most fundamental level you do not understand what
inductance does.

Please stop the mind fornication, Ian.

I am simply telling you straight. If you find the implications
disturbing beyond the import of my actual words, that is beyond my
control.

I understand how a coil works
and I agree with you how a coil works in a lumped circuit or a traveling
wave environment. It's obvious that our basic disagreement is NOT about
coils but is, instead, about standing waves.

Our basic disagreements are about coils *and* current *and* their
behaviour when standing waves are present. There's no point in switching
the discussion to cover only part of those topics.
