The physics professors who taught me quantum mechanics seemed to believe there is something special making up the human mind that, unlike all other matter in the universe, cannot be put int a superposition, and thus causes the wave function to collapse to one of its component eigen states. I won’t say that it doesn’t bother me that some of them believe in souls, but I’ve gotten used to it.
The physics professor that taught me quantum mechanics not only thought ‘collapse’ was some wonderfully mysterious phenomenon, the fact that the most probable location to find an electron can be at r = 0, while the most probable radius is non zero was wonderfully mysterious to him.
