P.S. In real circuits, power factor (the cosine of the angle between
voltage and current) matters. As PF goes to zero, PAR goes to infinity.

I think you are thinking about PF issues with power supplies with small
conduction angles and non sinusoidal current waveforms due to cap input
filters.... , the traditional PF caused by sinusoidal current and
voltage out of phase does not impact PAR.
