You have it right. I do think it's a small thing. As implemented with a pentode, Va-k change is trivial. When it's done with a small resistor underneath( between ground and the cathode bias and bypass ), I think I can ignore the cathode's input Z. For a triode at the front of the amp, the FB signal might amount to a few % of Va-k. I agree with your assesment that this is also likely a trivial effect. It is a good thing to realize when you're 'neglecting air resistance', yes?
