That sounds like a recipe for even more confusion further down the road;
now whether you get a -0-i or a 0-i out of your bag depends on which one
of the two was put in first, and the difference between 0 and -0 surely
makes a difference in enough cases when doing floating point math that
it would come up at just the right time to ruin your day :(

We could potentially give 0e0 and -0e0 the same .WHICH, which would solve the
bag issue.

Ah, so it's nothing particular to Complex:
bag 0e0, -0e0
bag(-0, 0)
Can't say I'm thrilled to have two distinct zeroes.
