To change from DRRR to a true loop would require
more than relays and motor-driven capacitors.
The DRRR "loop" axis is vertical, but a real loop's axis
is horizontal, with no ground plane.
You might want to argue that point with Art Bell and a number of others who successfully employ horizontal loops at their stations.
