You have tried this approach before. You seem unable to realize that
that is just a restatement of your position. And it is that position that
is in question. Restating your conclusion is not an argument or an account
of anything.

You have to make sure that you quote authorities that actually know
something.

If it were nonsense, you would be able to give a clear demonstration of a
local account of the Bell correlations. This you have repeatedly failed to
do, so I call out your nonsense.

Not everyone gets it right. People who believe in MWI tend to claim that QM
is local, but then, usually only in the context of the theory of
many worlds. They, too, have never been able to establish this. If they
had, you could give this argument. But even then, Bell's theorem proves
beyond any doubt that there are inequalities that any local theory must
satisfy. Experiment, as well as QM, shows that these inequalities are
violated. Indeed, Clauser, Aspect, and Zeiling were recently awarded the
Nobel prize for establishing this fact. QM has been shown to be necessarily
non-local.
