That doesn't express ignorance of the spin, although if you test for |Up> or |Dn> you'll get "yes" half the time; but if you test for |Right> you get "yes" 100%.  So a superposition is a definite state.  But in many cases we don't have an instrument that will measure in the superposition's axis.

The wf under consideration is 1/sqrt (2)[ |spin Up> + |spin Dn> ], and my question is this: Why PRECISELY is the Ignorance Interpretation false? Brent says it is "exactly wrong". I'd like to know his reasoning, or anyone's reasoning. TY, AG
