It's very common for people to confuse the properties a Euclidean Space and a Minkowski Space. Many properties carry over from a Euclidean Space, but some crucial ones do not. When studying Minkowski Space it's critical that the student takes the time to understand the differences and why they exist. The biggest one of course being the differences in the definition of the space's inner product.
