If you read words metaphorically then you can make them mean anything.
The whole point is that the quantum wave is not a metaphor. That is what the 
two slit experience, done with one particle at a time, illustrates.
Moving to instrumentalism is an option in applied physics. It is non sensical 
in metaphysics.
On the contrary, it is a metaphysic.

As a metaphysics it is self-defeating as it leads to solipsism. Metaphysical 
instrumentalism denies any non-observable reality, not even the dark side of 
the moon.

No.  That's strawmanning.  "Observable" allows for indirect observation.  Observation is not the same as seeing.
