Default Magnetic Longwire Balun: weird resistance. What is normal?

And I can confirm that, with a transmitter-side (shack end)

All that does is match the 50 Ohm transmitter to the 50 Ohm (or less)
transmission line. It doesn't address the mismatch between the
transmission line and the antenna at all.
