Gerard 't Hooft has been a renegade in Quantum Foundations for quite some time, insisting that there is natural order underlying the Quantum Mechanical mysteries. Essentially a local, deterministic hidden variable perspective.
He has recently posted a new paper on arXiv where he lays out his conclusions, on his website he says
I'm intrigued to hear opinions on this. Despite initial skepticism, and not being a fan of appealing to authority, I do think it's worth consideration.

Progress in my personal research on the origin of quantum mechanics as a doctrine for describing atoms, molecules, sub-atomic particles and more. Aim: write models that reproduce quantum behavior such that they can run on a classical computer. Question: how can one mimic quantum interference effects in a classical computer? Thought to be impossible, but the mechanism described in my latest paper works! For me, quantum mechanics is no mystery anymore. All one has to understand is:
The Emergence of Quantum Mechanics from Fast Vacuum Fluctuations
