But you, all by yourself, have aligned yourself with a small bunch of loons
who contend that waves require a material medium.

No, John, that is not at all what the Standard Model says. 

How about before complaining about how nonsensical things the Standard
Model says, you learn what it actually does say, rather than complaining
about nonsense you invented about the Standard Model?

Yes, that’s the definition of a medium. Not the definition of what’s needed
for a wave. When there is a material medium, it is involved with the
transfer of energy via waves in the medium. However, when there is no
medium or mediating substance there is STILL a way for waves to appear and
for energy to be transported in them. 

You have a problem with logic, John. I can give you a definition of silver:
a precious metal that is often used in the minting of money. Now John: does
that definition tell you that money must be made of silver? 

Idiot.
