Why can't quantum behavior be explained as an extreme version of classical behavior?
For instance, the idea of a small quantum particle being in superposition could be explained by that particle switching between 2 or more states at an extremely high frequency. How high a frequency? Well, on the order of a Planck Length or Planck Unit.
The only addendum to classical behavior that would be required would be non-locality or tunneling (ie. macroscopic objects are too big to tunnel, but quantum-sized objects are small enough to squeeze through the cracks)
