I agree.

It will be most interesting to see how much energy is in the side
frequencies
at ~1/2k F, how this varies with k and Q, etc.

I think your work is precisely on the ideal track.  This needed
explanation
represents an important missing link in present day Tesla research.  I
agree
that it should be explainable and understandable without obsure
mathematical
gyrations.
