Dear professor Landsman (Beste Klaas);
First: Thank you for the very clear and understandable historical introduction.
Quote "I conclude that deterministic hidden variable theories compatible with quantum mechanics cannot exist; Bell's theorem leaves two loopholes for determinism (i.e. nonlocality or no choice) because its compatibility condition with quantum mechanics is not stated strongly enough.34" unquote. I agree you're your conclusion only for different reasons:
1. Our past (as down-loaded in our memory) is the only deterministic entity (the seemingly cause and event line)
2. The NOW moment is still in the future for an emergent conscious agent (the flow of processing time in the emergent phenomenon reality ).
3. ALL the experienced emergent time-lines are as I argue ONE (eternal compared to our emergent reality) dimensionless Point Zero in Total Simultaneity, from where there is an infinity of Choices (hidden variables) can be made by the partial consciousness of an agent. So, the future is NON-Deterministic as we are approaching Point Zero. Point Zero, however, is unreachable for any emergent phenomenon out of Total Simultaneity.
Quote: "Now a proof of the above true statement about deterministic hidden variable theories should perhaps not be expected to show that all typical quantum mechanical outcome sequences violate the predictions of the hidden variable theory, but it should identify at least an uncountable number of such typical sequences-for finding a countable number, let alone a mere finite number, would make the contradiction with quantum mechanics happen with probability zero." Unquote. I think you are quite right here (This conclusion makes me think of the super-asymmetry theory of Sheldon Cooper...I hope I am not offending you), everything we are making a LAW of doesn't mean that it will be always so in a future that emerge, the more information we are gathering (in trying to complete our models), the more changes we will encounter.
I liked your approach and conclusions, but there are different ways to come to the same conclusions, so, I hope that you can find some time to read my approach
Thank you very much and good luck in the contest.
