[Amps] Design VS parasitic

Nonsense yourself.

Each tube has its own parasitic signature and doesnt need a supporting cast 
to determine it.

John understands the process and explained it well.

Going by your idea every amp would need a different suppressor design when 
all used the same tube. The path you described is well below high VHF and 
can be seen with a GDO or VNA. Most of the time it is harmless.

Tube engineering traditiion places the suppressor right at the plate cap for 
a reason and not somewhere on an imagined or arbitrary tuned line.
