from VSWR and displacement
It says "VSWR is not in any way dependent on the equivalent source impedance of the generator."

That is a fact, however in practice it is most likely that if you attempt to change source impedance of your transmitter, you will likely be changing any significant harmonic/spurious content and that will change your VSWR. Unless you are transmitting into a load which has same impedance across all frequencies, which antennas are not.
