  • The uncertainty principle is a consequence of conjugate bases, not just measurement disturbance.
  • Conjugate bases can have different units, making the concept counterintuitive and challenging to commonsense.
  • Quantum mechanics violates commonsense across multiple dimensions and is unique in its problem of interpretation.
  • Key jargon includes: discrete, state, superposition, and bases.
  • A pure property of one type can imply a superposition of properties of a conjugate type.
