In particular, no matter what mathematical method I use to solve a given word problem, I MUST arrive at THE SAME EXACT ANSWER. This is an example of what is meant by the internal consistency of mathematics.
But what physicists are claiming is precisely this: that, if you solve, say, the Aspect experiment, also called the two-channel optical Bell test (look it up on Wikipedia), by a method called βquantum mechanicsβ, you will get a different answer than if you use, say, probability theory.

This is impossible if mathematics were consistent, so what physicists are claiming is that mathematics is inconsistent and therefore useless.
(Which they will deny, of course, but that is because they do not understand what they are doing. If they did, they would not do it.)
They are wrong.
So the proof here is that ANY mathematical method can be used to solve ANY supposedly βquantumβ word problem. Therefore there is nothing βquantumβ about the problem. It is an ordinary physics problem.
