[I want the USA back]

The imaginary cat is EITHER alive OR dead. Alive and dead are mutually exclusive. A creature cannot be both at the same time. An observer may not know if the creature is alive or dead. That is not the same as the creature being both alive and dead at the same time.

He argued it was absurd to say his friend exists in a superposition of having seen and not seen a decay unless and until Wigner opens the lab door.

But what about Wigner's boss in the next office who hasn't seen Wignor nor his friend? Is Wignor in a supersuperposition of having seen and not seen his friend measure or not measure a decay until his boss opens his door?

Keeping in mind that the whole Schrödinger’s Cat thing exists because he didn’t like the implications of what they were saying. So he started working the math to disprove them. And wound up with the ultimate proof, kind of a “dammit they’re right”. Inevitably somebody was gonna figure out a way around it. Cause we know that’s not how stuff works in practicality. But you gotta figure out the math.
