Likewise. I did my PhD in quantum foundations/information, albeit some years ago now. I'm not aware of any serious researchers in the field that look kindly on superdeterministic interpretations. It's bizarrely parochial to suppose that every single photon is magically correlated with the experimenter's future measurement choices in a way that will exactly violate Bell's Theorem. Another way to put it: > If such a theory did exist, it would require a grand conspiracy of causal relationships leading to results in precise agreement with quantum mechanics, even though the theory itself would…

You said "So that's called "hidden variable theory". We've done tests that show it's not true". But that claim is not true — hidden variable theory hasn’t been shown to be false, but local hidden variable theories have been. In your latest comment, you say that "The whole point is to show that something non-local is happening". I'm not sure what thing's "whole point" you're referring to, but I suspect in the context of our conversation you're talking about the "whole point" of the implications of violations of Bell's inequality. But in that case, it's also not true that the point is that…
