A question for the physicists. I understand that entanglement is 
monogamous, which is really just a way of saying that a system's 
correlations with other systems cannot exceed +-1. Thus a maximally 
entangled system has no room for entanglement with any other system. The 
question is what happens to previous entanglements when a particle 
interacts with another particle, such that it becomes maximally entangled 
with it. Are prior entanglements completely obliterated, or are they just 
obliterated FAPP, meaning that maximal entanglement is also only FAPP? ISTM 
that some remote trace of entanglement - a kind of micro-entanglement - 
must remain?
