Well Donald, this is just a model, but you are right.

If I used this idea and there were CMC effects, I would simply add an effective choke and hopefully solve the issue.

The model shows the current on the mast as very low, and IMO this is because the driven element is isolated from the boom and the mast by its design. If I add a feed line to the model that will reconnect the driven element to the ground again...and then this model will likely show some CMC.
