| contents | In Quantum Machine Learning (QML) and Quantum Finance, amplitude encoding is often motivated by its logarithmic storage capacity arXiv:1307.0411. This paradigm typically relies on the mapping $ψ= \sqrt{P}$, treating the quantum state as a derivative of a classical probability distribution $P$. By restricting the data manifold to the positive real orthant $\mathcal{S}^+$, the accessible Hilbert space is effectively abelianized, rendering the representation ``phase-deaf''. We rigorously establish that while $P$ is a projection of $|ψ|^2$, the simple square-root mapping fails to recover the non-commutative structure necessary for genuine quantum advantage in classification tasks. Furthermore, we clarify why applying basis changes (like Hadamard gates) to these states fails to replicate the computational power of active phase-kickback mechanisms. Finally, we advocate for Dynamical Hamiltonian Encoding (based on QIFT), where data generates non-commutative evolution rather than serving as a static, phase-locked vector. |
