  • “if you ask a number of physicists what quantum theory really means you may receive very different answers” – yes, but they probably will agree that there isn't any decidably right or wrong answer to what it “really means”, and that the more important question of what it predicts for a concrete experiment can be answered unanimously. To get real disagreement today you should rather ask about something like string theory. Commented Sep 27, 2021 at 11:25
  • In the age of social media the reliability of experts could not be more irrelevant because people trust the opinion of idiots most. It truly is a case of the idiot leading the blind.
