A-G, my sense is, this is an important insight: "Naturally the parameter and boundary of ... respective position and magnitude are naturally determinable up to the limits of possible measurement as stated by the general quantum hypothesis and Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, but this indeterminacy in precise value is not a consequence of quantum uncertainty. What this illustrates is that in relation to indeterminacy in precise physical magnitude, the micro and macroscopic are inextricably linked, both being part of the same parcel, rathen than just a case of the former underlying and contributing to the latter." [emphasis added]
