 It is as though EPR’s talk of “reality” and its elements provoked Bohr to adopt the position of Moliere’s doctor who, pressed to explain why opium is a sedative, invents an inherent dormative virtue, “which causes the senses to become drowsy.” Usually Bohr sharply deflates any attempt like this to get behind the formalism, insisting that “the appropriate physical interpretation of the symbolic quantum-mechanical formalism amounts only to predictions, of determinate or statistical character” (Bohr 1949, p. 238).
