The complex exponential-number plane represents the reality of Universal History Formation. We can either describe a system of counting space-time in quantum-mechanics with the actual property of historic event formation space or we could try to retain the silly fantasy of a flat complex numerical plane with no mathematical understanding of time at all, but in natural logic we cannot retain both counting systems. One description of numerical logic can be regarded as valid and the other must be invalid. It is impossible for both systems of numerical self-reflection to be valid in parallel, because the two systems are mutually incompatible, the logic of each system annihilates the logic of the other.
