Like if the measurement perturb the system? That was Bohr explanation
before EPR. He understood, but is quite rhetorical on this to hide he
was forced to change his mind. he admits that the perturbation and the
collapse cannot be entirely mechanical/physical.
Now that I re-read the comments I should be expanding the question
to Lewis's modal realism, known now as Everetts MWI.
Lewis' modal realism is not the same as Everett's MWI a priori. But
can become the same, assuming supplementary hypotheses. Modal realism
is larger, a priori than Everett.
With computationalism. We have many dreams, but the question is open
if that entails 0, 1 or an infinity of physical reality (after some
(re)definition of what that could mean when we assume comp). The most
plausible one is zero. A physical reality is a phenomenological first
person sharable construct by numbers in computable and non computable
relation with each others.

What do you mean by "realism"?

I assume he is referring to the Bell
theorem. Realism, in this
context, means something like particles having a well
defined state at
all times, ie having hidden variables,
essentially.
