Sorry, don't understand - the feedback network is fed from the output
voltage i.e. across or shunting the output. Is that what you mean?

Yes, I had it as that to start with but changed it to 'show' the anomoly.

I had expected *all* NFB forms (however derived or applied) to reduce to
Ao/(1+ß.Ao) but this one does not.
