I read through this carefully, and initially also came up with 5/9 as the correct probability, however that is based upon the "happiness" of electrons. Unfortunately, I don't believe in electron happiness. The experiment has been personalized in an attempt to make it more understandable, however in the process key features of the source, of the electrons themselves, and of the detector have all been swept under the carpet. This makes it impossible to determine whether or not the conclusion reached is the only possible conclusion. It does however make an entertaining description of the status quo.
