Well, until I get my circular wavefront cellular automata, I will have to try a different way of disagreeing with Bell. I think MWI is on the right track but I don’t think there’s a necessity to split the world. And besides why do we call it splitting when in fact the result comes from the combination of both worlds? MWI suffers from a popularized science artifact which got stuck in science fiction.
#1 A is at 0 and B is at 20. 5.8% of the time they both pass through. This just means that at that moment when A passed through, B was the type that if measured at 0 it would not have passed through. Or if A had been measured at 20 same deal.
#2 A is at 20 and B is at 40. 5.8% of the time they both pass through. Again same deal.
#3 A is at 0 and B at 40. 20.7% of the time they both pass through.
Now you are asking how could the same splitter produce these photons? I submit that they are not the same ones which match up. If you had a history of rainbow colored photons which you could capture and reuse then the history of those which match up would cause the rainbow colors to rotate like Caesar’s cipher.
It is an explanation. Hard to falsify, but it is an explanation.
The experiment assumes that we are measuring the polarization of the photon. We are only measuring that these photons had polarizations close enough to the polarization of the filter to pass. Like a small pebble which goes through a large hole. That in no way says the pebble was as large as the hole.
No dopplegangers necessary.
It could also be that the hidden variable/other you is the other photon and the other experimenter, which of course implies not ignorance of details pertaining to a particle but lack of attention to the known properties.
Incidentally, why in this split world should your counterpart be you and not a computer capable of research?
Why can’t completely different multi worlds be counterparts? And for that matter, why can’t there simply be an experimenter who is exactly like you across the universe who gets the complementary result. It gets better. Suppose the experimenter in the other world is measuring A and B, just A. Why can’t he get your complementary result all the time?
MWI makes huge leaps we couldn’t see existed before MWI was conceived. Ow! That hurts my brain. It’s the broom in front of the door which you trip over which reminds you to tie your shoelaces.
MWI is the Quantum Spaghetti Monster.
We have to overcome identity fetishes (Thor makes lightning; Demeter makes the harvest plentiful) as well as symmetry fetishes (One deity causes fortune, the other misfortune; spirit good, body bad).
I’d also like to suggest why God must play dice. When you are in a rut and your rational reactions cause you to get deeper in that rut, only a flip of a coin can get you out because you keep dismissing the choices that can help you escape.
