So, the zombie cat is indeed a reductio-ad-absurdum of sorts (the translator uses the word 'ridiculous') and schroedinger's view is less stupid and crazy than what vulgar QM 'philosophers' believe. At least as far as 'blurring' ('superposition') goes.
On the other hand he does present a rather retarded 'rejection' of 'naive realism'...justified by 'epistemology' (hahaha). Which of course means that what the mainstream calls QM is not physics but pseudo-philosophy.
No, QM is a mathematical structure https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_formulation_of_quantum_mechanics. And according to the instrumentalist interpretation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interpretations_of_quantum_mechanics#Instrumen... the rest is indeed just pseudo-philosophy aka bullshit. <SNIP>
