But I find it hard to believe that this high-dimensional Hilbert space can maintain the many components of the qubits but not also the many components of all the particles in the world and wider environment after other particles interact with those qubits. Nothing in the theory says the may components are eliminated, so why should I believe that they are? Why do you?
