The "visual intro" misses a lot, and wastes half the space by introducing the complex numbers algebraically without a single visual because it's LLM slop.

A "visual intro" that doesn't even mention Mobius transformations[1] or Riemann surfaces [2] or any of the beautiful, colorful ways to visualize complex functions [3], or..

..well, it's just lazy LLM slop.

Is it better than the average high school introduction to the subject?

Sadly, yes. But it's such a low bar.
