    A local operator would be one that interacts with only one of the
    two particles, i.e. it's located near Alice or near Bob, but not both.


*I think of an operator in QM as a mathematical tool that gives us the possible measurements of some observable, not as a thing located in space, so I have no idea what you mean.

I defined it as operating on only one of the particles, not in terms of location.  I just added location remark as explanation of why it's called "non-local".

*BTW, to close a gap on a cosmological issue we discussed earlier here, when it's claimed the age of the universe is 13.8 BY, does that include both the observable and unobservable regions *

Yes.
