You make that mistake and so does Thane. Bi has also already brought this up multiple times.
The experiment that needs to be done is running the prime mover with no coils near the rotor and then repeat it with a coil near the rotor. You will see that there is a difference: more power is required from the prime mover if a coil is near the rotor.
