output (Alice) of the proposed counterfactual logic gate are not within the
same station but rather separated in three different locations. We show
that there is no need to pre-arrange entanglement for the gate, and more
importantly, there is no real physical particles traveling among Alic

I think *"definiteness"* is always counterfactual since it *MUST* deny the
potential influences from unknown factors (domains, a/effects, even some
definitely counterfactual influences we do not recognize as such at all).
It is a consequence of our agnostic view (as I

There may be. For instance, freedom might be a combination of
indeterminism and rational self-control.

If the mathematical model is accurate, and it allows different outcomes
under different circumstances, then the physical reality
it models prsumable has counterfactual possibilities.
Of
