It was the non-locality.
It was the idea that something going on in Alice's lab could influence the stuff going on in Bob's lab, right?
That's what that's what I've been saying all along, since 1927.
That's what bothered him.
That's what bothered him in the EPR example.
And
In
The pilot wave theory, it is a non-local theory.
It is clear and it's very easy to see it because you have a complete theory.
You can analyze what would happen under different experimental conditions.
It's very easy to see that the way this theory works, the way the guidance equation works, is non-local in your face, right?
What the whether Bob's particle goes up or down.
in his lab can depend on whether Alice has oriented her magnet this way or that way in her lab.
Even though her lab is a hundred million miles away.
Okay.
So if you're worried about the non locality, you are not happy with this theory.
And Einstein wasn't happy with.
Well, you see, locality, the locality that Einstein was worried about, the spooky action at a distance that he was worried about, clearly was always in his mind associated with physical space, right?
Spooky action at a distance meant doing something here in physical space had an instantaneous physical effect somewhere else in physical space.
Right?
