Unfortunately, after looking at this, it doesn't tell us what we need to know. This evolution starts with the two distinguishable Bell...

Can you be more specific?

By "independence" here, do you mean statistical independence of measurements? In analyzing an argument such as EPRs, it is best if we...

This might be one of those cases where we have to be very careful about distinguishing two different cases, which intuitively "look the...

Yes, and something more like my post #76, where I described what my account would look like for a setup in which all four Bell states...

But, as I think has already been noted, this implies backwards in time causation. Which means... ...this can't possibly be true, since...

I agree that, given the various complications that have been discussed in subsequent posts (some of which you allude to), saying "a swap...

I think this is somewhat too strong. Consider this from a previous post of mine: Generalizing on this: for a swap into the ##\Phi^\pm##...

Yes, as @Morbert pointed out, what I was calling my "bucket 1" is not really "swap attempted but no swap", but "swap that the...

1. I think "implies" is fair. 2. I would certainly include any automated "auxiliary random process" as being an expression of the...

The Hilbert space doesn't change just because you make a measurement or perform a unitary operation. The full Hilbert space describing...

Ah, I see. So my buckets 0 and 1 will not show the same statistics. For an interpretation with actual collapse, yes. But we are using...

This is a very important point in understanding how science actually works. Popper popularized the idea of falsification, but...

Probably it is best to not hijack your own thread. You already have another thread in this topic...

Not "wrong", no. It is a valid approximation to GR in the regime where gravity is weak and all relative speeds are small compared to the...
