    What exactly is the situation? Interference is destroyed, more
    and more, as they get hotter, but without any observations? AG

    Right.

It sounds like some sort of hidden variable (don't take this too literally), where the particles send out information of whether interference will occur or not, and it doesn't matter if it's observed. This could fit into my model of superposition with some modification; namely, it you do a which-way experiment, OR if information about which-way is available, interference is destroyed. And what goes through the slits in the absence of these conditions is a wave going through both slits. AG

OK.  Except "send out" doesn't make sense.   It implies signaling, which would be at less than light speed (c.f. delay choice quantum eraser experiment).
