    Supports→Quantum mechanics alone implies contextuality.

    Therefore, QM combined with VD is inconsistent with NC, so QM must entail the negation of NC (i.e., contextuality).

    Recently it has been argued that the denial of VD is inconsistent with QM itself (Held 2008, 2012a, 2012b). The argument tries to show that VD is a consequence of the theory itself (QM → VD). If this is indeed the case we have — recalling that KS establish that QM & VD & NC implies a contradiction — an argument for the claim that QM alone implies contextuality. Since, in that case, QM also implies VD we get, all in all, an argument for the claim that QM must be interpreted in terms of co
