Imo, this is just over-reading incidental phrases. If Barandes was seriously about promoting some kind of distinction then he would...

Those are your words, not Barandes'. I just don't think the opinions you are saying reflect what it seems to me that Barandes is saying...

Interpretation in the sense of any regular quantum interpretation. There is the Hilbert-space formalism, and then how people choose to...

Theres no transparent distinction between formalism and interpretation here, putting interpretation in a nice box unambiguously distinct...

Well you'll have to point out the distinguishing going on because it's not immediately apparent to me when watching that.

This is a fine criticism if there is evidence that Barandes transparently distinguishes interpretation from formalism. Point it out. I...

But he doesn't transparently distinguish formalism from interpretation and even makes specific arguments against other interpretations...

Barandes has never made this distinction though. He presents it as one indivisible approach. And if the interpretation is different...

I disagree. I think its throughout his lectures; interviews; and papers, his interpretation and the formalism are put in one box and a...

Sure, but the supposed philosopical contribution of the indivisible approach is compromised because you can't say it implies any novel...

It is a sufficient condition (for possibly discontinuous trajectories) but you can't get this out of the thoery. You have to import it...

This is a mistake, and should read: "What is most salient to me is the suggestion that Barandes' interference has nothing to do with...

I don't know whether Coleman's position contains something original, but there is something else that I find problematic. Coleman first...

From what I read, this paper seems to imply some serious ambiguities in Barandes' work about what indivisibility actually mean, and when...
