In fact a quantum computation only works because all the wrong answers have a high probability of being eliminated by destructive interference...which requires that they be computed in the same world. So prior to the computation, all of the wrong answers existed?There is no answer until the output is measured. Brent Then what did you mean by "all the wrong answers have a high probability of being eliminated". Eliminated from what?I mean not showing up as the answer. And they don't show up because... ?Their amplitude in the superposition is small. If you've got something to say, just say it. BrentYou seem to be avoiding the implication that the system starts in a state where all possible answers, both wrong and correct exist.
You seem to think that because something might exist in the future it exists.
