I feel like you're looking for answers to questions that go beyond what's reasonable for a story. If there weren't certain things to incite things, to create a situation, there'd be no story. I answered someone else's question as to how things work and there's an explanation using quantum mechanics, if that answer helps then that's something I'm already trying to make a bit clearer in-text. If not though, then you're wanting a level of explanation that'd make the story a lot more bloated.
Nah, special quantum mechanics, morphic resonance and even apotheosis don't need explanation because they are fictional things defined in the story. I am just confused by some weird character decisions and unexpected consequences to those. But I understand what you mean, sometimes you need to... stretch your logic for the story to be interesting.
quantum mechanics
Is a real scientific theory. Not just some fiction.

Sometimes we just gotta trust the author and creator of the universe that he does know better than the reader, and accept it. It's nice to have some "nerdy" disccisuion sometimes, but lets be lenien, ok? Stories that involve any kind of "loop"- or "timetravel" mechanic are a slippery slope right from the beginning. I think Grizz handled that very well.
Same goes for explanation: I also like explanation, but dislike endless information-dumps. Also the more information you drop; a) rising follow up questions b) destroying the mystery and room for speculations and....*shrug* fanfictions.
I didn't say quantum mechanics is not a real scientific theory. I said "special" for a reason. And this reason is that quantum mechanics doesn't work how it's described in the story. That's pure fiction.
And no, we don't have to trust that anybody knows better then anyone else without evidence. And there is no timetravel in the story.
You missed my point by a lot. I never said that my problem was with quantum mechanics or timetravel or loops.
I do think we should be lenient, but not that lenient that our brains falls off, but thanks for your unsolicited input.

Just you missed my points. IMO Asking forscientific detail will lead to an endless Q&A about "fictional" mechanics. The writer of Star Trek and Star Wars also don't explain every thing in detail, because it's hardly relevant. As long as the writer does not flip the universe and disregard it's laws (like the Lightspeed suicide despite the enemies shield and deflector fully operational in Star Wars 8, that totally broke the Star Wars Universe) it's fine.
So i end with requoting Grizz:
