Well, yeah, but I'm trying to keep it simple. We are not all quantum physicists on this forum

That is one interpritation of the experiement. I prefer locality -- observing the results of manipulating one particle changes which manipulations of the second particle you can see.
This means that every particle interaction slices reality along yet another axis.

Your science knowledge is very impressive, but this does not change my original point.

The law of excluded middle does not hold with "reasonableness".
"It is reasonable to believe god started it all."
"It is reasonable to believe that god did not start it all."
Both of the above can be true without there being any conflict.

This doesn't really have anything to do with what I said. I said just because something is reasonable does not mean it is true. Even if it's reasonable to believe 2 different things, that does not mean one, or both, of those beliefs are true.
