    Quantum mechanics proves that quantum mechanics is valid.

    It is the mostly widely accepted interpretation but it is not the only one.

    We’ve been confident before and spent centuries chasing literal ether.

    The Copenhagen interpretation is just that, an interpretation.

    We’ve chased it for decades and are no closer to resolving it with classical mechanics.

    I’m sure future scientists to scoff our demand that there be an “observer”

    It still cannot account for gravity.

    The formulas pretend it doesn’t exist. It reminds me of a physicals 101 class pretending friction doesn’t exist.

    Friction exists and so does gravity, therefore they are both pretend.

      Thats not even true, we’ve been trying to come up with a unifying theory that encompasses quantum gravity for a while. This stuff is hard dude. And you don’t know what you’re talking about at all.

        Trying and failing.

        Is it not possible that it’s “hard” because we’re chasing the wrong path.

        This isn’t something I alone think. You seem to be under the impression I have a less than Wikipedia level understanding of this. I do not.

          No, it’s hard because the energy levels that we have to have to test things at the plank scale are much higher than anything we can achieve right now with our current level of technology. Plenty of theories make predictions about quantum gravity, string theory, M theory, lopp quantum gravity. There’s even a few out there theories that just try to modify newtonian gravity.
