MrAl,
Our discussion. I am not participating in this thread by myself.
True, but not pertinent to the topic of the discussion.
We are not discussing capacitance. Perhaps you could start another different thread?
A diagram would explain a point of view, but not prove it. A discussion with credible references can convince someone.

You mean does not clarify 'your' discussion?

I talked about feedback systems because if you want to use that transistor in a feedback system then you might have to carefully consider its transfer function, and if you consider its transfer function to be a constant gain (or even slightly variable) the feedback system might oscillate.
True, but not pertinent to the topic of the discussion.
You want to talk about something more basic, but isnt that what we are doing? Capacitance is basic because it is everywhere between any two points. You seem to want to say that the basic diode (equation) is more basic to the decision to decide on control than capacitance is. I guess i dont quite understand why you would want to do that, except maybe to describe the diode alone and add the capacitance later as needed. Sort of like having a light bulb (which would also have some capacitance) you want to describe the basic behavior and add the small capacitance later as it is determined to be for that particular bulb (if it is even needed at all later).
I guess i could understand that, but then we seem to be back to where we have an equation and it can be solved for either variable I or V. You would have to show that there is some physical basis for your bias of voltage control over current control. I just dont see how you can do this given that both field and charge seem to exist at the same time. Is it explainable in terms of quantum physics perhaps?

Perhaps a diagram would help here. You can draw a picture of what you say is happening and why it appears to be voltage controlled. You seem to be very convicted in your point of view so it may help a lot to do this and i would like very much to see this.
It doesnt always help to show some professors point of view because sometimes they have their biases too, but if you would like to show a whole bunch of scientists have that same point of view that would have more weight here. I once posted an argument backed by many professors and many people still didnt believe
