James,
Ask you local Elmer to explain what he meant when he said the analyzer
doesn't really tell us impedance.
Perhaps there is a word missing in that sentence.
and mathematically calculate the true impedance of the antenna. I think
there are even analyzers that enable you to plug in the characteristics of
the feedline and it adjusts its result to compensate for this, but I don't
own one of those.

I think you answered your own question... when
you mentioned going further to mathematically
calculate the "true impedance."
He was speaking specifically about my former
MFJ analyzer, and I don't know what he would
say about my current one by a different maker.
