No, no. The Einstein-de Broglie boxes are much better.
A friend of mine wrote something, recently, (and forgot
to mention the most interesting issues !). Let me see,
yes, here it is http://www.arxiv.org/abs/quant-ph/0404016

Of course in QM the problem is: what the quantum-theoretical
description is about? Physical states (objects)?
Available information about physical states?
Images of physical procedures (measurements,
pre-measurements, set-up, post-selections, etc.)
defining physical states ("contextuality")?

Dunno if there is the same bifurcation here (MH):
reality or available information?
