Incorrect. The boat is not creating an interference pattern on the
shore in and of itself regardless if that is what the model says is
occurring or not.

Tthe model which says the boat creates the interference on the shore
in and of itself does not accurately reflect nature because the boat
creates the interference pattern on the shore because of the water.

The boat is NOT creating an interference pattern on the shore in and

QM is the same as saying the boat creates the interference pattern on
the shore in and of itself. That is not what occurs in nature in a
double slit experiment with a boat.

No, it does not. QM says the boat exits both slits because QM doesn't
realize a moving particle or object has an associated aether wave.

With the addition of one word, QM nonsense disappears:

A moving particle has an associated [aether] wave.

Then you have no idea how science works.
To you, an idea's truth is based purely on whether you believe it is
so or not.
This is called religion.

The statement was predicated on an IF there were such a model.

There isn't.

You seem to lose track of that fact.

There IS a model of C-60 molecules that describes the interference of
those molecules in and of themselves, and it is highly successful in
the way it makes predictions.

There is no such model for boats.

For boats, it is the water that has the successful model, based on
accurate predictions. So because the water has the best predictions,
then it is the best description of nature regarding boats and water.

For C-60 molecules, it is QM that has the successful model, based on
accurate predictions. So because QM has the best predictions, then it
is the best description of nature regarding C-60 molecules.

You have to look at the predictions and experiment. That is the ONLY
judge in science.

No, it is NOT, because QM does not make that claim about boats and
water. But it DOES make that claim about photons, electrons, and C-60
molecules. And it gets the answer right.

It doesn't matter what it "realizes" or not. The ONLY think that
matters in science is whether it makes accurate predictions. Period.

You insist the boat creates an interference pattern on the shore in

occurring in nature behind the mathematical equations.

The fact you insist the boat creates the interference pattern on the
shore in and of itself because that is what is thought to occur behind
the mathematical equations shows the true nature of QM.

You have no idea how science works.

This is what you said previously:

"If the model that the boat created the interference pattern in and of
itself got the answer right where no other model was able to make the
same successful quantitative prediction, then yes, I am right. This is
how science judges whether theories are right -- by whether they work,
and that means whether they make better quantitative predictions of
observations than other models."

"In science, the proof of understanding what is going on
is based SOLELY on the ability to predict quantitatively what will
happen under so-and-so circumstances. That is, in science, if you can
say "If you set up so-and-so circumstances, then you are guaranteed to
see such-and-such result in this specific amount," and it does in fact
come out just as you said, then this is solid evidence that you
understand what is going on. That is how science works.

And since I can do that, then by scientific standards, I know what is
going on in nature."

You insist the boat creates an interference pattern on the shore in
and of itself because that is the incorrect 'understanding' of what is
occurring in nature behind the mathematical equations.

> This is called religion.

The fact you insist the boat creates an interference pattern on the
shore in and of itself is analogous to your insistence the C-60
molecule creates an interference pattern in and of itself because that
is the incorrect 'understanding' of what is occurring in nature shows
the true nature of QM.

The fact you insist the boat creates an interference pattern on the

molecule creates an interference pattern in and of itself. QM Dogma.

The moving particle has an associated aether displacement wave.
