*> So Bell's theorem is a theorem of QM after all!* Bell's inequality is not about quantum mechanics, or at least it's not specifically about quantum mechanics. When Bell first came up with his inequality nobody knew if it was violated or not, it wasn't until about 20 years later that experimentalists were able to show that it was indeed violated. What Bell proved with just logic and high school algebra was that if determinism, realism, and locality are assumed then *ANY* correct theory of physics, quantum mechanics or any other theory,* MUST* predict that his inequality is never violated. But quantum mechanics *DID* predict it would be violated, and a couple of decades later experimentalists told us that quantum mechanic's prediction was correct, it *WAS *violated. Therefore it's impossible to avoid the conclusion that at least one of Bell's assumptions must be wrong. Provided we ignore Superdeterminism. As we should!
