The phase has the benefits of two time dimensions despite there still being only one singular flow of time.

Ha, I think all of us are quite experienced living in two time dimensions. Someday if you're lucky, the calendar will tell you that you're 75 years old. But the clock in your head will say it all went by so fast it was ridiculous. Yes, it sure seems two time dimensions are at work there, but I'm not sure where the benefits are.

Fascinating article. Thanks for posting. I hope these guys succeed in giving quantum computing a quantum kick in the pants!
