Something that seems a little counter-intuitive to me (having now worked with the assumptions a bit) is the decision to let 2, I and 2 + I all be considered complex (with the former two being real and imaginary, also, respectively). It seems like it would be more useful to consider them be onln

Stefan, The physics.vector package provides vectors and tensors that are basis dependent which eases working with vectors defined in multiple reference frames that are rotated with respect to each other. If all of your vectors are defined in a single reference frame, then column matrices suffice.
