All real components have "stray" electrical elements due to their physical construction.

When comparing Jack Smith's ((K8ZOA) excellent and detailed post in this thread, his use of "parasitic" is the same as my word "stray." That is, we're talking about exactly the same thing. The difference is I purposely simplified the explanation for those with less technical background. I like the word "stray" better, both because it's the way I learned to talk about 60 years ago, and because it also describes phenomena that is unintended.
