    “Imaginary” is just a misnomer. Descartes basically ran a smear campaign against them.

      That’s actually a good point I had never considered! In a way you could consider that “negative numbers are imaginary as well”

        And that’s never something I considered. You can’t see a negative amount of apples. Must be imaginary!
