“Articles should be legible to the audience. You can’t just throw in a position written in terms that require special knowledge not possessed by the readers. It may be interesting, but then the goal should be exposition, showing importance and encouraging study.”
I both agree with and disagree with this statement. I agree that a post should be written for the audience. I disagree in that I think people here spend a lot of time talking about QM and if they do not have the knowledge to understand this post then they should not be talking about QM. The other issue is I think this post may be too muddled to really require special knowledge before the author clarifies the post.
General Post Question
The one big thing that confuses me is the title do you actually mean Quantum Monadology? If so are you claiming some use of the formal term monad, or some definition of your own? I don’t see this post as following from some real definition of monads as seen in scientific literature.

I think to be blunt this post is a bit muddled with ideas from all over the place put into one big pot and the result is not very enlightening. If you haven’t already I suggest you lookup the precise definition of monad. I can’t find it now but there was a paper a while back published on this topic of formalizing QM within the formal idea of monads.

Maybe they shouldn’t (but not because they can’t understand this post).
As I’ve been saying, I mean pseudo-Leibnizian monads (pseudo because unlike Leibniz’s, they can interact), not computer-science monads.
