That way you don't need to take ABS and ARG for complex number in rectangular form to get amplitude or phase shift. If you are only making sanity checks and other simple calculus.

Good idea, but how about instead of repeating the display mode choice functions (RECT and POLAR in the MODE menu), implement a SHOW-type command that would temporarily present the X-value in the currently non-active display mode. Maybe label it C-SHOW. That way you would not have to use two soft key positions, and it would only take one key press to see the value in the other format while remaining in the current display mode. I could live without the CONJ command, I mostly just put that there to fill out the six soft keys. I hardly ever need to take the complex conjugate. So now my COMPLEX (or CPX or CPLX) menu would be:

i_____/_____R<>C_____ABS_____ARG_____C-SHOW
