Indeed, one other assumption that may have been made is that the dynamic behaviour and nature of interactions should be similar to those...

Yes, that was Bell's point when he formulated the theorem: reality violates the Bell inequalities, so at least one of the assumptions...

Indeed for large objects, but that is no longer the context. There has been another assumption made. The assumption that the...

It’s a proof by contradiction argument. The calculation is correct if the realism and locality assumptions hold; we do the experiment...

Ok, thanks for the reply. I may have unconsciously rejected the realism assumption since I find it highly questionable that you can...

I might have lost some of the formatting when trying to copy and paste from the wiki page.

I wanted to have a quick check on how Bell's theorem was formulated so consulted the wiki page...

The most entangled might (in general) be the problem description. Maybe in first order: Step 1, suppose there is a process in which...

The issue has become more clearer now and I think these posts misses the point. It is not about individual elementary particles at all...

I can agree with that. p.s. Post 8 was not really relevant at all, but lets leave that

It's trivial in QFT. Ordinary QM is only an approximation to the relativistic limit of QFT. There are no antiparticles in ordinary...

It is not just a choice. By describing it as an individual physical system, it is being overlooked that every such physical system is...

Because elementary particles are identical. The indistinguishability is a consequence of that. A photon may have a different energy...

It is not about describing a single elementary particle, but about an individual physical system. Let me guess, you never had a real...

No, there is no such requirement indeed. Thus you are trying to describe with a wave function a system and interpretate it as an...
