I'm not convinced. The notation would only work for literals, and how
often would one write literal complex numbers?

For non-literals the notation would need to support this:

(* (my-complicated-algo x)+(my-other-complicated-algo y)i (another-
algo z)i)

This is no issue at all without this notation:

(complex-times [(my-complicated-algo x) (my-other-complicated-algo y)]
[0 (another-algo z)])

Implementing this notation would obviously require a serious overhaul
of clojure for a nice-to-have feature.
