How so? No need to answer, you don't know what you are talking about. As I said Bell's inequality has experimentally verified consequences. So if it would somehow be in conflict with the conservation of momentum - it would be the conservation law that would be in trouble.

Quantum Erasure "A polarizer is placed in the p beam, oriented so that it will pass light that is a combination of x and y." The polarizer allows for a combination of x and y light waves to pass through but the polarizer is only allowing certain photons to pass through. The photons which pass through the polarizer will have the same circular polarization upon exiting the quarter wave plate. Photons which will have either left or right circularly polarization, but not both, upon exiting the quarter wave plate will pass through the polarizer. Since only one set of circular polarized photons are being tallied, an interference pattern is detected at Ds. Delayed Erasure It doesn't matter if the photon interacts with the polarizer before or after its pair interacts with the quarter wave plate. Only certain photons pass through the polarizer and this correlates to either the left or right circular polarized photons which exit the quarter wave plate. Nothing is erased. Nothing is delayed.
