Yes. And your comment is OK. If a theory is probabilistic, and if the probability are not drivable by classical ignorance in a unique computation, then it has to use classical ignorance on some classical extension of its domain, and that is what happens when we accept all the terms in the superposition have a physical role, although negligible if the amplitude is (relatively) small.
