Of course, like Bohm, you can assume that there are particles, and

believers do.
Bohmian mechanics is just pure Schrödinger wave equation -- simply
interpreted in a slightly different way from Everett. In fact, it is
generally recognized that Bohmian mechanics is equivalent to a many
worlds interpretation. (Another illustration of the fact that non-
locality is inherent in QM -- not even Everett avoids non-locality.)
Bohm = Everett + an infinity of zombies with spooky non-local telepathy.
Everett get rid of the zombies and of the telepathy by extracting the
possible talks from the formalism applied democratically to every body.
Only problem: he uses computationalism, so his task is just not
finished, the wave itself must be derived from self-reference/computer-
science/number-theory. It works, and we get trace of a core
symmetrical object, which suggests a shape for the hamiltonian.
Why would not the material appearances have an explanation/reason
simpler that "It exists".
