    Reasons For

    1 perspective
    Reason for
    ?
    • 1.State non-separability and property/relational holism obtain in the modal interpretation.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 2.Process separability fails for reasons analogous to those establishing state non-separability and property/relational holism.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    Reasons Against

    2 perspectives
    Reason against 1 of 2
    ?
    • 1.In the modal interpretation, definite properties are assigned to subsystems via the biorthogonal decomposition, preserving local ontological distinctness.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 2.Process separability requires only that processes supervene on intrinsic properties of spacetime parts, which modal property assignment per subsystem satisfies.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 3.The failure of state non-separability does not entail failure of process separability if processes are grounded in the modal, not quantum, state.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    Reason against 2 of 2
    ?
    • 1.Vermaas and Dieks's perspectival modal interpretation assigns properties relationally but in ways that remain definable for each system independently of joint states.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 2.If each subsystem possesses its own definite modal properties independently, then the causal processes governing each subsystem are locally specifiable, preserving process separability.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    The failure of property composition implies that the quantum realm as depicted by the above version of the modal interpretation involves state non-separability and property and relational holism. State separability fails because the state of the particle pair is not generally determined by the separate states of the particles. Indeed, as is easily shown, the actual properties that the L- and the R-particle each has in the state |ψ9> are also compatible with product states in which the L- and
