Noone understands quantum mechanics but you will tell this scientistic community what quantum mechanics is, because you know what it is even if noone understands it.
Sorry you're being downvoted but you're the one who's just throwing buzzwords around that you poorly understand. That's the definition of scientism, right there.
I don't understand QM, and no self-respecting physicist claims to understand it either. The consensus is pretty strong on this. QM is strange, the Standard Model is strange, but it works. I'm kinda surprised people like you are not aware of this simple fact. We don't live in 1700s anymore, and aren't in the world of high-school physics. Things are strange now, and the data-backed equations have replaced understanding. I can understand that people want science to explain things, but that's simply not the reality any more.
OK, seriously. How are you in a position to know what is the consensus among
quantum phycisists, or anything much about quantum mechanics? Are you a quantum phycisist? A soft eng at CERN?
And what exactly do you mean "people like me"? Please don't do that.
That's not how you figure out what the consensus is. At best, you may get an idea of what the person speaking believes (or wants you to believe) the consensus is, but researchers always have their own opinions and their own agenda so you can't really rely on talks and articles in the lay press.
To be able to say that you know what the consensus is in any given field the gold standard must be what scientists in that field do: read about 250 papers each year for a few years, speak to as many other researchers as possible and go to a few conferences and workshops, until you really understand were things are and how they are moving along.
I appreciate that's a high standard, but that's the general idea. If you can't do that, then at least be aware of the fact that the opinion you have formed is not terribly informed and you 're not any kind of authority on the matter.
