Maybe just they got lucky evolutionarily or they evolved in a different environment that demanded those senses.

Right.

And so they have these different senses.

Or maybe, for example, aliens are microscopic.

Here's a mind-blowing potential is, what if aliens can interact with quantum objects without collapsing them?

Wow.

Right?

I mean, the reason that photons collapse when you experience them, if I shoot a photon at your eyeballs and I give it a probability to go to the left or to the right, you only see it in one.

Right.

Because your eyeball is a classical object.

It's big.

It's fat.

It collapses that wave function.

But if you were tiny, if you're microscopic, if you are a quantum object, quantum objects can interact with other quantum objects.

They get entangled, but there's no collapse.

What if you could experience both branches of that wave function natively?

You could just like, oh yeah, 60% this one, 40% that one, instead of being forced to choose.

You live in that world, you're a tiny microscopic alien that can interact quantum mechanically without collapsing stuff.

what you're understanding are quantum mechanics.

It's just mechanics.
