Superdeterminism sidesteps interpretational questions by arguing against reductionism, which is pretty much the core of all physics. Where is this hidden information stored? What causes the specific outcomes in a destructive measurement?
To say that QM is in fact a local hidden variable theory because everything was once touching billions of years ago, without positing any mechanism for it is a cop out.
At least instrumentalism admits that there are interpretational questions, even if we don't need to answer them.
- and because we observe non-local information stored in braiding of the wave equation; even when we separate the constituent (quasi)particles.
The belief that you can reduce a system by decoupling a particle or system from outside influences is at odds with that second fact. We’re storing the hidden variables in those non-localities; when you measure a system where both particles are part of a non-local phenomenon, they’re coordinating through that non-locality.
What has literally no proposed mechanism is suggesting such non-local quasiparticles disappeared — by what specific mechanism did primordial anyons dissipate?
