If magnetic charges were part of the everyday world, there WOULD be
justification for giving the name "Displacement magnetic current" to
changes in manetic flux.
Charge/monopole asymmetry naturally leads to conceptual asymmetry
regarding "Displacement Current."
...
I agree. What is an electron but a dandelion-puff of e-field flux, with
who-knows-what at the center. The "flux lines" may or may not connect to
something in the middle, but they definitely interact with each other
there. Therefor, look at the flux only, and ignore the electron. When
our electron proceeds through a plane, the changing e-field patterns which
penetrate the plane are very similar to the e-field patterns in a
parallel-disks capacitor during a current. When a great number of
electrons flow in the same direction, their cumulative field is even
closer to that between capacitor plates during a current.
If electrons are merely knots of e-field flux, then there is no
corporeality to electrons at all, and a moving electron is not
fundamentally different than the displacement current between capacitor
plates.
