Our ability to conceive of something should not be in the definition of reality. Quantum mechanics and relativity have just as much, if not more experimental evidence to support them as atomic theory, and make even better predictions. This has implications in the "real world." If we base our definition on what is "intuitive" instead of what is provable, we end up with things like humour theory in medicine.
