Merge with Pauli matrices page?
editI don't see a reason for this article to exist separately to Pauli matrices. — Preceding unsigned comment added by LinesInk (talk • contribs) 10:02, 3 November 2022 (UTC)

Pauli matrices are introduced in undergrad courses on quantum mechanics, and should have a separate article aimed at a wider and less mathematical audience.
