And I told him you were stupid enough to do it.

Then what was the DON'T!?

Assuming all theoretical ideal components, your series resonant circuit
would draw infinite current and produce infinite voltage at the
junction
between L & C - you'd vaporise the whole galaxy.

So what about putting in in series with a 240V load?


It would see the load as a loss vector which would change the whole
dynamic.


Explain further. The added circuit should be a "negative resistance",
which when added to a normal resistance would app to.... zero?!


In theoretically ideal components, C has current leading voltage by 90 deg
and L has current lagging by 90.

In real world components, losses alter the vector angles with the end result
that your series resonant circuit doesn't draw infinite current and produce
infinite voltage.
