Fortunately I don't subscribe to the school of thought that says all
mathematics is simply rearrangement of symbols according to formal rules.
As a physicist/engineer, the above limit has real meaning for me.

have figured out how complex arithmetic relates to reactance if some
mathematician hadn't wondered `What squared is minus one?'
