This paper challenges Wallace's claim about quantum language in quantum theory, suggesting pragmatism offers valuable insights.
This paper advocates for a pragmatist view on quantum theory, offering a response to David Wallace’s recent criticisms of Richard Healey’s quantum pragmatism. In particular, I challenge Wallace’s general claim that quantum pragmatists—and anti-representationalists more broadly—lack the resources to make sense of the novel ‘quantum’ language used throughout modern physics in applications of quantum theory. I conclude by posing a challenge to quantum representationalists.
