That's because there is no such proof, but there is proof that in any physical theory that is consistent with experiment *at least* one of the following must be wrong: 1) Realism 2) Determinism 3) Locality If I had to ditch one (and I do) I'd pick determinism, but I don't know if the universe has the same preference I do. > > Everett wave evolve deterministically, I've never heard of a Everett wave.

You may prefer a universe that has all 3 attributes, me too, but you can't always get what you want; if experiment says we can't have all 3 then we can't have all 3. End of story.
