The loss of ordering is what makes complex numbers unique and useful for describing systems like rotations and probabilities.
Classical probability works with real numbers (probabilities between 0 and 1). Quantum probability involves amplitudes represented by complex numbers. These amplitudes can wave-interfere with each other, leading to superposition and entanglement
