Physicists take the imaginary numbers out of quantum mechanics which resulted in making quantum mechanics even more difficult to work with. Great job! Any mathematician could have predicted that result. TBH, I thought physicists had a better command of mathematics than that.

Also, it's well-known that calling imaginary numbers "imaginary" was sophomoric humor from early mathematicians - they're just as 'real' as the real numbers, not some mathematical invention or fantasy. It’d be nice if we could change the name, but that water has done flowed.
