"We argue that the ψ-ontic/epistemic distinction fails to properly identify ensemble interpretations and propose a more useful definition. We then show that all ψ-ensemble interpretations which reproduce quantum mechanics violate Statistical Independence." https://arxiv.org/abs/2109.02676

How would anybody be able to determine this one way or the other?

Can you do science without this assumption?

What is the reason for there being no reasoned mental images for the quantum world? Is it because of us or because of what's "out there"? Could one not argue that the deeper we probe nature, the stranger it looks not because of us; instead, it's because we are straying further away from our...

I guess I find it hard to believe that objective reality consists of just observers (conscious agents) or just points of view with nothing else. And the problem of indistinguishibility would seem unbridgeable. How could you possibly determine which is the correct picture? Having said that (and...

This is one problem with Quantum Bayesianism and relates to this thread: The Bayesian may try to avoid this but as Timpson points out, other problems follow: http://users.ox.ac.uk/~bras2317/qb_s.pdf

This 2017 article is an excellent piece worth reading in full. I'll quote some of hi-lites, in case you have to be a health professional to access to link: http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/882564?src=soc_tw_160817-pm_mscpedt_news_neuro&faf=1#vp_1

These are some other studies that question the link between saturated fat and heart disease and/or mortality: http://www.nutrition-coalition.org/saturated-fats-do-they-cause-heart-disease/

Some authors have suggested that if the non-local effects observed in Bell-type experiments propagate at any finite speed, then non-locality could be exploited for superluminal communication (e.g. 'can't stay hidden'): Looking Beyond Space and Time to Cope With Quantum Theory...

Retrocausal interpretations would meet these criteria. Such models are consistent with Special Relativity and restore locality to nonrelativisitc quantum mechanics. They also restore time-symmetry to microphysics. See: A live alternative to quantum spooks https://arxiv.org/pdf/1510.06712.pdf

Does this mean that we will one day have an answer to the old age question on the ontology of the wave function: Towards optimal experimental tests on the reality of the quantum state http://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1367-2630/aa54ab

How would you interpret experimental violations of Legget's inequality?

But KS theorem already rules out any models that are non-contextual. Surely Bell's shows something further?
