- Did Steinmetz use field language differently from modern textbooks?
- Did his mathematical treatment preserve physical meaning that later teaching abstracts away?
- Are there concepts in his transient analysis that are under-taught today?
- How does his treatment of hysteresis compare to modern magnetic material theory?
- Did he explicitly reference ether, and in what technical contexts?
- Are there links between his symbolic method and later phasor engineering?
- Where did Tesla and Steinmetz agree or diverge?
- How can Wheeler-style readings be represented without confusing interpretation with historical fact?
- How did Steinmetz’s distinction between resistance and reactance shape later AC pedagogy?
- Does the older term “condensive reactance” preserve a useful physical picture that “capacitive reactance” partly hides?
- Where do transient terms in Steinmetz’s writing anticipate modern surge-protection and insulation-coordination practice?
- Which original AC and transient diagrams should be promoted first for the public site?
