I think I found my answer, if in my OP we consider the probabilities vertically, classical minimum is 1/2 but quantum is 1/4 (?). So there's violation, though I still think the vertical analysis is the correct one for the proposed experiment.

@bhobba You're right. I did deviate from the initial objection. It was because of my confusion. But now I think I get it (at least I hope so). If the probabilities are correct it's already implied that the more trials are made the closer we get to those probabilities by averaging the results. It...

@bhobba So no matter how the dice may be rigged (or for that matter the environments in which the throws are performed) the probabilities still remain 1/6? @.Scott I'll try to understand how those correlations work for this case. @DrChinese @Nugatory Yes I agree, having just the source...

@bhobba I won't pursue this any further. I'm not questioning the theory per se, just that in practice it may be applied incorrectly. For instance we can calculate the probability for a dice but if it turns out the dice was heavier on one side...

@bhobba But still, for our particular case if the source is indeed *biased* to some pattern/s of the type of particle pairs it emits, doesn't it make the probability calculations violable?

@bhobba If I understand correctly those proofs rely on the existence of some special random variables (?). If that's the case, is it possible that in practice those conditions aren't always fulfilled? For e.g. in the OP I wrote that any combination for how the source emits the pairs of particles...

@Heinera For me it's not obvious that millions or infinite trials will necessarily vindicate a probability. Is there some sort of proof for this, or it must be taken as an axiom? @.Scott Unfortunately I don't understand what that p function represents (I did search about it, but didn't find...

The following assessment of a Bell experiment is based on N. David Mermin's example and is intended for persons with very little understanding of mathematics and physics (myself included). Assumptions (A1) A source emits a pair of particles with some opposite pieces of information. (A2) The...
