However, quantum mechanics interprets the experiments in a Hilbert space. If a physicist picks up a strange Hilbert space, a biological organism may have a curious intersection between being alive and dead there.
This is only a problem if one interprets the Hilbert space as truth. If one interprets it as a mental model made with limited information, the curious intersection is actually an expression of an *observer's* uncertainty about the organism being alive or dead or both or none.
QM is much less confusing if one adopts the internalist stance. The superposition is a formalization of an observer's inability to decide between multiple contingencies.
