It's also a big leap to realize that wave functions are additive, not probabilities. QM probability lies not on a Boolean algebra but on a lattice. Also there are no marginals.

Brings back memories... The lattice of wave functions would be Lebesque integrals. How about fuzzy set theory for marginals?
