​It's not a theory it's a experimental ​
observation, Bell's inequality is violated no doubt about it. And Bell
didn't even use quantum mechanics when he derived his inequality, he used
nothing but high school algebra and trigonometry and the assumptions that
determinism, locality and realism are true. And yet we know through
observation that Bell's inequality *IS* violated. So either high school
algebra and ​
trigonometry
​ is wrong or at least one of the 3 assumptions that Bell made is wrong.
Even if quantum mechanics is someday proven to be incorrect whatever
theory succeeds it will not change the observation that Bell's inequality
is indeed violated. I don't think algebra or trigonometry is wrong, so at
least one of those assumptions must be.
