Textbook treatments of this subject include a proof that the Cij's are a
function only of geometry. This is an important part of the usefulness of
this model. Your treatment does not seem to include this point.
Proof??? I think it's an assumption requiring an
approximation ... not a proof.
It's bad luck to prove things that aren't true.
For example, the assumption does not hold if
varactors or other lightly-doped semiconductors
are involved.
Thanks for pointing out this gap in the logic; I
just now added a paragraph documenting the required
assumption.
