I think that you are considering a high frequency problem in low 
frequency terms.  Stitch vias impact the cavity, and when they are in 
close proximity to signal vias and traces, they affect wave modes near 
those structures.  Thinking about stitch vias and the cavities that they 
traverse as though they are continuations of the TEM path that breaks at 
a Z axis transition is not a good approximation.  The Z axis signal 
transition injects the signal energy into the cavity.  The various 
properties of the cavity:  material, and geometry, including what vias 
stitch the cavity surfaces together and where affects how that signal 
energy propagates through the cavity in all directions.
