Hidden Premises Behind Quantum Paradoxes

This note asks whether the standard quantum formalism entails either that thereis no fact of the matter about the specific physical state of a macroscopic subsystem or thatoutcomes in Bell experiments must be formed superluminally at spacelike-separated eventsof primary registration. It considers a minimal ontological possibility: every physical systemhas some objective physical state at every moment, not reducible to predetermined values ofall observables. An early registration may correspond to an objective yet reversible andnon-final state of the measurement chain. The cat paradox and the inference of superluminaloutcome formation are shown to require additional premises: that a decomposition of theglobal superposition exhausts the objective state of a subsystem, and that primaryregistration coincides with the completed formation of an outcome. The two conclusions thusshare a logical structure without any change to quantum dynamics or observable predictions.
