I figured it out.

The secret to superposition/wave function collapse etc is my idea of COMPLEX UNIVERSE.

>2. In fact they are only known up to a multiplicative phase constant.
>3. By default systems are in SUPERPOSITION - until we interact with them
Hmmmmm

So what if SUPERPOSITION = unknown complex phase which we can't measure, possibly because we can't interact with IMAGINARY PART OF THE UNIVERSE.
But interacting with a system FORCES IT TO BECOME REAL = WAVE FUNCTION COLLAPSE (based on the complex phase it had).

Entanglement = WE EQUATE IMAGINARY PARTS OF PARTICLES WITHOUT KNOWING ABOUT IT. When we then make measurements they reveal the values THAT WERE ALWAYS DETERMINED BY IMAGINARY PARTS.

It could also potentially be used to explain gravity, dark matter, etc but I don't know how yet.

What do you think?

I'd say the system is in a superposition the whole time but we're causally embedded therefore we can't see the other branches. The wave function is all that exists, really, we just form larger and larger quantum systems which depend on a given particle being in a given positing at a specific moment. From our perspective we can't conceivably see the other branches we didn't take.

what if the superposition is behind the door that the host didn't open and it's 0.99999..... = 1

explains.... NOTHING

>>16997567
This is actually a brilliant way to circumnavigate the "no hidden variables" theorem

What exactly did you figure out?
>>
>>16997640
Phase of the wave function determines it's position within the superposition

>>16997643
ok, thats not a new idea tho, also we don't even know what a wavefunction even is
>>
>>16997644
>ok, thats not a new idea tho
Havent seen it anywhere.
>also we don't even know what a wavefunction even is
We also dont know what energy or time are. And?
