The article agrees with you.
But quantum spookiness is the best we have at present.

We may not have the ultimate, complete, full answer to the question of
how the Universe works, but we have knocked down a tremendous number
of pretenders from the throne. If your predictions disagree with
experiments, your theory is wrong, no matter how popular, compelling,
or beautiful it happens to be. We have not yet ruled out all possible
incarnations of Bohmian mechanics, or of more general pilot wave
theories, or of all possible quantum mechanics interpretations that
possess hidden variables. In fact, it may not ever be possible to do
so. However, every attempt to construct a theory that agrees with
experiment requires some level of quantum spookiness that simply
cannot be done away with.
