That is true, but then, on an internet forum it
is very important to use the right words to address 
something. It is difficult enough to explain
complex circuits without images (Scott, Mike, Jim, David !!)
without  babylonic misunderstandings.

Without taking sides in this specific debate, it depends on what you 
mean by 'distortion'. A reactance can introduce phase shift, which 
certainly 'distorts' pulse shapes, but does not create harmonics of 
intermodulation.
