practically speaking 'i' is a reverse Cheshire Cat

I gave up mathematics when they poured alphabet soup all over the nice tidy digits in the base 10 number system. So I don't actually follow the meme.

My solution to Schrodinger's paradox is that it's all the same to the cat. Probably exists comfortably both living and dead in different dimensions.

Well, that and everything possible is occuring infinitely in infinite parallel universes. In an infinite number of infinite subsets, I actually learned higher math!
