i honestly cant tell if this is a shit posting thread or an honest inquiry into the reason for why we have certain machinery in mathemetics. Well, simply put, mathematics is an arbitrary language with the property of self coherence. Maths are developed in order to deconstruct and generate sophisticated systems in an effort to find solutions to difficult problems. Fundamentally, what makes a language or tool useful is it's ability to create solutions and ease of use." imaginary" numbers are such an example of a useful tool. if you want to learn more about abstract mathematics read up on abstract mathematics, number theory, fundamental mathematics or logic.

But who am i kidding. this is likely just a shit posting thread
