just because *I* have begun to apply abstractions of quantum theory here in this post, i would caution YOU (OP) to be very wary of making such applications prematurely. you will be liable to piss off someone smarter than you and we will end up with another 15 page pissing contest.
i am going to post this now without editing it because i am tired and rambling. if you got anything out of it at all, then you are smarter than i think you are.
best...

Turns out that a particle CAN display both properties (particle and wave) at the same time! That is in total disagreement with "accepted" understanding of QM.

In the delayed choice quantum eraser discussed here, the pattern reappears even if the which-path information is erased shortly after, in time, the signal photons hit the primary detector. However, the interference pattern can only be seen retroactively once the idler photons have already been detected and the experimenter has obtained information about them, with the interference pattern being seen when the experimenter looks at particular subsets of signal photons that were matched with idlers that went to particular detectors.

So you are saying that the wave properties of light need an ether? What is it?
He has measured cosmic ray velocities from Antarus, he said, which he found to be fifty times greater than the speed of light, thus demolishing, he contended, one of the basic pillars of the structure of relativity, according to which there can be no speed greater than that of light
