IMHO THEORY BUT THATS WHAT WE ALL NEED TO START WITH.
There is also some SIMPLE math. To understand THEORY.
Even if it isn't always that simple......
Bur we are Radio Amateurs aren't we ???
Sorry for that "monkey wrench".

You're right.  On page 11-7 of the current edition of the ON4UN book, Fig. 
11-6 charts phase shift vs line length for various load mismatches.  For a 
given mismatch the phase error appears greatest at 90 degrees and zero only 
at 0 and 180 degrees.
