But we don't have a resistor, we have an inductor adding or
removing kinetic energy from the system. The dielectric of the
capacitor has losses, and the conductors do too. But this can be
brought to less than 20% losses without too much difficulty.

The deal breakers will be charge / discharge rate (aka. current).
