John: We study the 2nd picture. There're 2 types of loss. One is insertion loss. And, one is reflection loss. 
Me: OK.
.
John: Insertion loss is a real loss. 
Me: Why is it real loss?
John: Because, part of the power of the carrier wave enter the ground before they enter the inductor. In another words, part of the power of those carrier wave is attenuated.
Me: OK.
John: Therefore, the "power" of the carrier wave isn't completely assigned to terminal B. 
Me: OK.
John: However, is "reflection loss" a real loss?
Me: Not really.
