You seem deliberately obtuse. These "mysteries" are "solved" by familiarity. If you feel Bell experiments are mysterious I challenge you to name some possible solution to the mystery. Brent Your words; "I didn't say there's "no mystery". Which is not equivalent to "there is a mystery" except in your unscientific world where there is never suspension of belief. *The contra-positive of your statement "I didn't say there's "no mystery" " is equivalent to, I think, "I said there is a mystery"; or if not, the latter is a reasonable inference. But regardless, you're entitled to a Nobel in the Philosophy of Science, insofar as you invented a new scientific method! Specifically, if you're uncomfortable with interpreting a theory, and later, after thinking about it a lot and becoming comfortable, you can claim the theory is true. * *You just can't get away from binary choices. Don't you ever think of NOT drawing a conclusion until there is sufficient evidence, of never jumping to a conclusion. Brent* More BS. What binary choices are you referring to? I haven't drawn any conclusions, but I am allowed to consider reasonable inferences. I am uncertain what the results of Bell experiments imply, and I have stated that numerous times in different ways. I am certain that your comfort zone is not a criterion for whether a theory is true. (Please; no BS that no physical theory can be considered "true".)
