Because the Wave equation in this setting leads to a pure state dead+alive, and twe know that such pure state leads to different prediction than any possible corresponding mixed states. (Assuming the SWE). That’s true even if the box is open, but in that case, the pure state will be lifted to the observer of the cat, who will become itself in a pure state of seeing the cat dead and the cat alive, in parallel histories. In this case, the indeterminacy is explained entirely by the same indeterminacy occurring in, amoeba self-division, or in the infinite multiplication of all relative universal number state in arithmetic.
