Hello!
Recently I found this article: http://quantum-journal.org/papers/q-2017-07-14-13/pdf/
Being familiar with some basis of quantum formalism, I, nevertheless, experienced several difficulties with understanding of the theorem described in this paper. I would really appreciate if someone could tell me does this theorem really disprove some types of macrorealism or it only provides the conditions for empirical tests of macrorealism (like Leggett inequality)? I could metaphorically rephrase my question: "Does this no-go theorem prove, that the moon is not there when nobody looks?"
I understand, that this question is based on my layman concepts, and everything is much more deep and complex, but I really need your help.
Thank you in advance!
