Don't you think that a theory claiming there is one unique specific history that conspires against you every time you make a measurement to reproduce the correlations is exactly what deserves to be called silly?

    some people, even some very distinguished physicists, have no
    problem at all with an infinite universe, but react with the

    Is "utmost" that level of horror you express when contemplating
    superdeterminism?
