Sounds like RF reflection used like a data capacitor or something.

Yeah, that probably sounds so unintuitive and weird to anyone who has never worked with RF.

The particular example was getting clock-like behavior without a clock. It had an incomplete circuit that used RF reflection or something very similar to simulate a clock. Of course, removing this dead-end circuit broke the design.
