It is fair to say that the "collapse of a wave function" is at the heart of physicality. The manner of the collapse is a complete and utter mystery, untouched by science, yet it occurs endlessly. And this is fact, not supposition. We do not understand.

We do not understand. Guess that explains all the endless arguments about what QM "means," Phaedrus! It all ends up being "a battle of the world views" in the end, and then we're still no closer to understanding, still left with the mystery.
Thanks for your most insightful post, P.
