The problem with classical mechanics is that it's not consistent with measurements.
Not consistent with what measurements?
Quantum mechanics is. The equations. According to the Copenhagen interpretation, only the math matters. I don't like it any more than you seem to. Because I'm not a mathematician.
"Only the math matters" doesn't make sense. This might come as a shock, but physics is supposed to 'measure' 'reality'. Then the measured magnitudes may end up in some equations, used to calculate other aspects of...reality. Like, you measure the volume of object X, you then put 'volume' and 'density' in a equation, and you get the weight of object X. Math is just a tool that deals with numbers. And numbers without units have no physical meaning.
So basically, they find that the classical model of reality is fucked.
lol lol lol
You must be a local realist ;)
I of course am a rationalist and a realist. I don't know what 'local realism' is supposed to mean. J.
