That's a good comic, thanks! "Wait a minute... That means a qubit corresponds to a unit vector in two-dimensional Hilbert space!" And quantum gates/operations on qubits are just unitary linear transformations on those ve

What if it isn't actually an alloy but instead is some kind of alien-engineered nanomaterial? (This is purely scifi musing from my behalf, I don't believe in some kind of cover-up at this scale.)
