It is not that I do not believe in subtraction in the form of transferring things between people or entities. If I have 5 apples you can easily take 3 and leave me with 2. We both end up with a positive number of apples. You could even plant an apple tree and give me some apples back in a few years, creating new apples. The apples might fall from the tree and rot away to nothing, but could they rot away to a negative apple? I do not think so.
During the lockdown, I could not play tennis as for some unknown reason the government of Ireland considered playing non-contact sports outdoors as dangerous.1 This was negative thinking and was contrary to the science at that time. I was not pleased. As tennis is clearly the closest sport to quantum programming, I decided to spend my spare time looking at quantum computing. Wave theory is the basis of quantum programming. In wave theory, waves can interfere with each other. If the waves are perfectly synchronised, the resulting combination of waves will be bigger. The size of the resulting wave, known as the amplitude of the wave, will be the sum of the two waves’ original sizes. This is a form of addition. I like to consider it as a meeting of waves. If the waves are not synchronised, then the size of the resulting wave will be the difference between the two original waves’ sizes. The resulting wave can be totally flattened and disappear, but it can never become negative. This is how noise-cancelling systems work. Sound waves are generated that are out of phase with the ambient noise and so reduce the size of the ambient noise waves.
This is another example showing that you cannot find negative waves. Sure, you have addition and subtraction, but no negative. The Science Checklist 2 states that mathematics is not a science and does not depend on confirmation from the natural world. It complements the sciences and supported great advances in our understanding of the natural world. It does not rely on the scientific method of observation, hypothesis, testing and analysis. Instead, it relies on basic axioms or unproven first principles. Proofs are based on deduction rather than testing. These first principles allow for negative numbers. It is time to question these first principles with relation to negative numbers.

Scene 1
Once upon a time, there was an electron called Oneo who spent its time flying around its universe visiting as many places as it could. It was on its own and thought of itself as the one and only and so called itself Oneo. After a long time it visited nearly every single point in its universe. Oneo was very fast and sometimes it felt as if it was everywhere at the same time but it was not sure, it just seemed to appear in different places. Oneo noticed that there were many points beyond which it could not travel. Its universe had an edge and that there was nothing beyond this edge.
