On that basis, my stripped back wave-function is the pattern made on the in the two slit experiment, by all those particles coming through, where each one hits. Purely on that temporary definition alone, would we be on common ground (a) so far as it goes - given the goal - it's a legitimate definition (b) the wave function is an observed fact, and so is its collapse? . Else, if the only facts I'm managing to reveal is the embarrassing kind like the sorry ass paucity of my basic grasp of things, hey....don't be embarrassed :O) Give it to me straight
