You're just reaching a conclusion which pleases you about total energy of the universe being exactly zero. You're just assuming the dark energy fills the gap, after the total energy of what we can observe is estimated. And I note that you never referenced dark energy or matter in your original message. Further, about the ignorance interpretation implying hidden variables, I didn't intend that inference. All I am really asserting is that we can just dispense with the idea that a system can be in multiple different states simultaneously, and no harm is done since the mathematics of QM remains unchanged. Think about that! But keeping that claim, great harm is done since it unnecessarily mystifies the theory.
