Not sure if this belongs here, but phuquet.

Just an armchair late night whisky thought, but the Einstein Podosky Rosen paradox seems to be missing Occam’s. The particles aren’t distinct; they are the same particle. It’s the observation that’s false due to dimensional ignorance.

Iow, in a twelve dimensional chess game (or however many dimension there ultimately turn out to be), when you move a pawn, to a third dimensional observer, it looks as if two different pawns are being moved simultaneously, when in fact only one pawn exists/was moved.

Iow, it’s our limited understanding of the true nature of the particle that makes us think there are two particles at a distance acting spookily, when in fact there is only just one particle.

Thoughts? Other than I need to put the whisky down.
 
There is a VR simulation of 4D space using a 4D cube. You exist in 3 dimensions (obviously), but the cube behaves as if it is in 4 dimensions as you translate and rotate the cube in 3D space. Pieces of the cube "appear" and "disappear" in 3 dimensions.. The programmer described the effect very well in a video about it... using a 3D cube drawn on 2D paper as an example of how we are perceiving the 4D object in 3D space. It was pretty cool. It also reminds me of what you are talking about... so... ya.. maybe.
