There's a conspiracy theory that some types of phenomena are lost in the Heaviside formulation of Maxwell's equations, but describable with the original form that used quaternions. e.g. 'scalar waves' that are used for wireless power transmission and death rays.
Is anyone able to make an informed comment on that? I can barely handle the Heaviside formulation, the original quaternions are was over my head.
